And you would likely win that bet! "For international connections where the airport of arrival of flight B is in the same country as the airport of departure of flight A, the flights are not regarded as being connected." See "4.3.1 Flights arriving from and departing to the same country" at https://www.gov.uk/government/public...passenger-duty
