Israel Proposes Carbon Tax on Flights That Could Add Up to 274 Shekels ($86) to Ticket Prices
Why It MattersA per-ticket levy on all inbound and outbound flights adds a new cost layer to Israel's air travel market, one that falls partly on foreign visitors and higher-income passengers.
Haaretz
A proposed carbon tax on flights to and from Israel could add as much as 274 shekels (about $86) to ticket prices.
The Israel Tax Authority estimates the levy would raise 1.1 billion shekels (about $350 million) annually and increase ticket prices by 4% to 5%. Foreign residents and the country's highest earners, the top 10% of earners, are expected to bear more than half of the cost.
