Changes to Tax calculations

We have made important changes with regards to calculating UK Air Passenger Duty Tax and the German Aviation Tax

We have divided the tax calculations into 2 stages:

  1. Stage one - initial calculation based on the number of PAX leaving the country (UK, Northern Ireland or Germany) and the country of destination
  2. Stage two - once PAX names are added, the calculation based on actual PAX and their final destination

In order to receive the figures based on actual PAX, recalculation is required. In order to perform the recalculation, you need to:

  • Add PAX names to relevant flights and delete the quote
  • Press 'SAVE & BACK' button
  • Edit the request again
  • Add new quote calculation
  • Save the request with the new quote
It is possible to amend the amount of UK APD Tax manually. The quantity and amount fields in the 'UK Air Passenger Duty Tax' are editable.

Please see examples below.

UK Air Passenger Duty Tax

UK APD calculation based on PAX number

Example 1 - UK

Calculations based on PAX number

Please see screenshot on the right.

The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EGGW and finishes in KJFK.

The aircraft is of higher rate type.

In the simplified version of the calculations, we only consider the flights starting in the UK and looking at the destination band and the number of PAX flying. No actual PAX are assigned.

The calculation is as follow:

3 x GBP78 = GBP234

Explanation:

  • rates for the UK based airport of departure
  • airport of arrival for 3PAX is in Band A (Russian Federation) and higher class aircraft - the rate of GBP78 per PAX
UK Tax calculation based on actual PAX

Calculation based on actual PAX

The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EGGW and finishes in KJFK.

The trip starts with 3PAX and finishes with 2PAX on the last flight. 1PAX finishes at EPWA.

The aircraft is of higher rate type.

In such case the calculation is as follow:

2 x GBP515 + 1 x GBP78 = GBP1108

Explanation:

  • rates for the UK based airport of departure
  • airport of arrival for 2PAX is in Band B (USA) and higher class aircraft - the rate of GBP515 per PAX
  • airport of arrival for 1PAX is in Band A (Poland) and higher class aircraft - the rate of GBP78 per PAX
  • 2PAX arrived at the destination in Band B and 1PAX at destination in Band A
