Petition

Remove airport fee which was introduced during covid due to loss of traffic.

Rejected 13 signatures

What the petition asks

Airport fee of £5 was introduced after covid which was to cover loss of business of airports. Now the business is better than pre-covid but now it has been increased by 20% to £6. This has no reasons or ground to keep increase this charge.
This is an additional charge on commuter which was raised for a purpose which has now become defunct.

Why it was rejected

It asked for something that is not the responsibility of the UK Government or Parliament.
