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:
In order to receive the figures based on actual PAX, recalculation is required. In order to perform the recalculation, you need to:
Please see the examples below. For the purpose of the calculations based on the actual PAX, we assume that the PAX added to flights don't change and carry on the following flights.
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:
Calculation based on actual PAX
Please see screenshot on the right.
The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EGGW and finishes in KJFK.
The trip starts with 3PAX and finishes with 2 of the initial PAX 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

Example 2 - Northern Ireland
Calculations based on PAX number
Please see screenshot on the right.
The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EGAA 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 Northern Ireland and looking at the destination band and the number of PAX flying. No actual PAX are assigned.
The calculation is as follow:
2 x GBP78 = GBP156
Explanation:
Calculation based on actual PAX
Please see screenshot on the right.
The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EGAA and finishes in KJFK.
The trip starts with 2PAX and finishes with 3PAX on the last 2 flights.
The aircraft is of higher rate type.
In such case the calculation is as follow:
2 x GBP515 = GBP1030

Example 1
Calculations based on PAX number
Please see screenshot on the right.
The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EDDB and finishes in DNMM.
In the simplified version of the calculations, we only consider the flights starting in Germany and looking at the destination band and the number of PAX flying. No actual PAX are assigned.
The calculation is as follow:
3 x €7.38 = €22.14
Explanation:
Calculation based on actual PAX
See screenshot on the right.
The trip starts with 3PAX in EDDB. The same PAX continues from UUWW and the trip finishes with 2of the PAX on the last flight. 1PAX finishes at UUWW.
In such case the calculation is as follow:
2 x €41.49 + 1 x €7.38 = €90.36
Explanation:
Example 2
Calculations based on PAX number
Please see screenshot on the right.
The trip consists of 3 flights starts in EDDB and finishes in EDDB.
In the simplified version of the calculations, we only consider the flights starting in Germany and looking at the destination band and the number of PAX flying. No actual PAX are assigned.
The calculation is as follow:
2 x 3 x €7.38 = €44.28
Explanation:
Calculation based on actual PAX
See screenshot on the right.
The trip starts with 3PAX in EDDB. The same 3PAX continues from EDDW to UUWW. 1PAX leaves in UUWW and 2PAX carry on to EDDB.
In such case the calculation is as follow:
3 x €7.38 = €22.14
Explanation:
Example 3
Please see screenshot on the right.
The trip consists of 2 flights starts in EDDB and finishes in VTBS.
The trip starts with 0PAX and finishes with 2PAX on the last flight.
In this case, calculations based on PAX number and actual PAX will be the same.
The TAX calculated will amount to €0, because there are no PAX departing from the German airport.
