Flying cross US will be more expensive
In the draft 2012 U.S. federal budget sent to Congress, it’s proposed to add a $5.50 head tax per air passenger flying to US destinations. However, there is no head tax for people crossing the border in cars.
It’s well-known that flying from US airports can save you hundreds of dollars, see our article. Now if you are planning a family Florida vacation, this is another saving if you fly from a US airport.
