| Abstract: | Duty free sales within Europe appear to have won a reprieve. But how hard will airlines be hit if duty free is eventually abolished? To bureaucrats, the abolishion of duty free must have looked a simple matter when it was mooted. The European Union (EU) decided in 1991 to scrap duty free sales for travellers within the region as part of taxation and excise measures to make the single market a reality. It was supposed to happen in tandem with the harmonisation of taxes in the EU -- but that remains a distant prospect. |
