In order to fight the fake problem known as “climate change” Lufthansa is passing on an environmental charge onto its customers. This is to comply with new European Union rules on sustainable fuels.
RT:
Germany’s flagship airline Lufthansa has announced a surcharge of up to €72 ($77) for plane tickets, as it seeks to offset the cost of complying with new EU rules on using more expensive sustainable aviation fuel (SAF).
According to the company statement issued this week, the levy will be applied to all tickets issued by June 26 and for departures starting from January 1, 2025 onwards.
On short and medium-haul flights, fares will go up by up to €5 in economy and €7 for business class, Lufthansa told Reuters. On long-haul flights, travelers in business class will be charged between €18 and €36 extra while first class customers will be charged up to €72.
The additional cost will be applied to flights departing from any of the EU’s 27 member states, as well as the UK, Norway and Switzerland, Lufthansa said. All flights sold or operated by Lufthansa Group, which owns airlines including Lufthansa, Eurowings, Swiss and Edelweiss Air, and Austrian Airlines, will be subject to the charge.
“The surcharge is intended to cover part of the steadily rising additional costs due to regulatory environmental requirements,” Lufthansa said.
They are trying to make travel via plane accessible to fewer and fewer people and this stupid climate change hoax is a perfect excuse for them to do that. They’re pushing all these goofy regulations that cost companies more money to comply with and that cost is ultimately passed on to the customers.
Everything these people do is the drizzling shits. I sincerely hope the people pushing all this insanity die very painful deaths.
