I thought taxes are deteremined by the Govt and not the airlines.BA taxes are a true ripoff.
Kindly explain Mr Sadiqhassan how Emirates manages to charge such low taxes
It's taxes *and surcharges*. Thus, BA charges a fuel surcharge. EK does not.

The taxes are government set, whereas some of the surcharges are airline set.
