The recent increase in aviation taxes in Germany not only challenges state’s competitive position, but it jeopardizes key economic drivers such as exports, tourism, and employment opportunities. Also this hike will most likely hinder the industry’s #decarbonization efforts.

[IATA @IATA]

The 19% increase in the #German passenger tax is bad news for the 🇩🇪 economy and for efforts to decarbonize #aviation.

Is #Multimodality an alternative to short-haul flights? Yes, it is.

Honoured to participate at the @routesonline conference and explain how #rail and #aviation can really work together to help cut #emissions.

Many thanks @RSchvartzman @IATA for moderating the discussion.

Looking forward to working with European Governments to gain their support in ensuring aviation connects people and economies even more sustainably

[IATA @IATA]

The #ReFuelEU agreement is important & brings some clarity to the market for #SAF but it's vital that a Book & Claim system & strong production incentives are put in place. This will improve flexibility of supply for SAF. #flynetzero

@IATA estimates that SAF production increased by 200% from 2021 to 2022.
▶️This is crucial to achieving net zero CO2 emissions by 2050.
▶️Governments need to put in place SAF production incentives as soon as possible to further secure our supply.
