Cost More To Leave Germany By Air

If you want to fly from Germany back to North America, it's going to cost you 40 Euros more in taxes. Anyone mind?......http://bit.ly/8Yyi9p

Frank II, thanks very much for posting this! I assume the €40 fee will also apply to flights to Canada, so that will DEFINITELY be a factor in my future flight planning!!! Although I often use Frankfurt, I can easily substitute Paris, Amsterdam or other major airports, but of course I'm wondering how long it will be before other countries in Europe decide to adopt the same "environmental fees". I'm sure they won't miss the opportunity for another easy source of revenue! Cheers!

Thanks Ken for reminding me that I should have included our Canadian friends in the note so I have changed it to "North America."
