A 1000% tax on private jet flights would be nice too tho ๐Ÿคจ

This is exactly what I thought, too.

without looking it up I guess there are more commercial flights than flights with private jets. would you also tax flights of private planes that are not jets?

Emissions per passenger per kilometre.

Without looking it up, how many people does 1 commercial flight carry, and how many people does one private flight carry? How much fuel, therefore, is burned per person on each private flight? A private flight that could've been done on a commercial flight?

We'll sit here until you work it out. Don't worry, we have cheese and a flask of tea
