Passengers of Yerevan-Istanbul flights to be exempt from “air tax” - Armenpress
Passengers using the Yerevan-Istanbul flights will be exempt from the “air tax” – a state duty usually included in the price of the tickets, Armenpress news agency reported, citing the Civil Aviation Committee of Armenia.
“The routes which haven’t been served in the past 12 months and are now starting to operate and where there will be at least 1 flight per week for at least 1 year will be exempt from the air duty. This doesn’t only refer to Istanbul, many other directions have been exempt from the air duty by this principle,” the agency quoted the representative of the Aviation Committee.
It is noted that the “air duty”, or “air tax” is a 10,000 dram tax. The Istanbul direction is exempt from the air duty for the period of February 2, 2022 –February 2, 2025.
