Consumer travel advice: Air passenger duty or APD tax is adding extra charges from November 2009, plus the TAX is more than doubling from 2010, adding extra charges to your holiday or flight only.
So for example a family of 4 flying to say the Red sea in Egypt will pay, £240 in APD – £80 more than the current figure. And the same family traveling to Spain will pay £52 more in 2010
Here is the full APD run down showing current charges and the future extra charges to be paid.
