Budget airlines are balking at fees imposed the German government. The politicians in Berlin say these are critical to the green transition, while the CEOs of these airlines are pointing to them as a reason that Germany’s aviation sector hasn’t bounced back to pre-pandemic levels. But with Ryanair and Eurowings pulling routes off the schedules, many are wondering if the era of cheap European flights is about to be grounded.

The idea was the opposite. Everyone's disposition… it won't work like this… as previously discussed with Dr. Alckmin.
Allan and Wolff too… Mess a lot
Beggars?😂
Yes. They interfere a lot and get in the way.
👑🇦🇪🇦🇪
Yes. It's getting too expensive for everyone. It couldn't be like this.
The ozone layer, remember?
No.
Once the Domestics emission brought under control,I think Respective country will be looking to review the Aviation policy
Germany is doing good they should close all factories and ban aircrafts from flying
Ryanair and similar are not the problem here and blaming them is kind of elitist. Look at e.g. Lufthansa flights flying half empty 3x per day between two German cities that also have a decent IC connection because some businessmen cannot be bothered. Cheap lights like Ryanair or Wizzair are mostly full, operate just couple times per week and connect counties that are actually far from each other. And they made travel (which is a wonderful and educational experience) available for everyone, not just the rich. Not everyone on the Ryanair flight is a drunk Brit. Get of your high horse.
There is an idea in EU to ban all flights when the connection can be done by IC withing 3h. I am very pro this solution and i would extend it to 4h. In reality mostly the expensive "business" airlines would suffer here.
OMG , I can’t believe you want European aviation sector to collapse like the European automobile sector!
Passengers avoiding German Airports as well as Airlines.
In Denmark, from the new year, we will have to pay another green tax on flights. But the government (by their own admission) won't be spending the extra money on anything environmental. They'll spend it on pensioners. Where's the credibility in that?!
As long as rail travel is more expensive than flying, flying is much too cheap. Travel prices should be in line with the footprints.
and I am waiting for cheap flights to south america and oceania to start.
Green energy dependency is the worst. I don't even poop green anymore.
Aviation journalist expert…more of an activist this guy is…
When will Germans stop listening to people living in the USA, telling them what to do?
This interview is simply shameful. We have no fast trains connecting well Europe and the danger in isolating Germany is huge: economical, social, in terms of European integration etc. it’s not about drunk people in Prague (what a horrible stereotype btw!), it is about keeping our small continent functioning and connected, for peace, common politics, common economy, for defense etc. Flying Munich-Florence (50 min) emits the same CO2 as doing the same trip with a diesel car. By car or train one needs 8-9 hours. Sparing this CO2 will contribute to the environment but it will kill Europe. While Austrians and Italians are working very hard on the Brenner tunnel to make fast trains running from Rome to Munich and Vienna, Germany has not even started to plan for the fast connection Munich-Innsbruck! Shame on DW for inviting an American who does not understand what Europe needs, or he even wishes to contribute to see Europe falling apart. Without flying the US would simply collapse. Really, a bad service for Germany and for Europe in front of the objective collapse of aviation in Germany in just a couple of years.
Success is chasing after Germany but Germany runs faster
