Flight Seat Charges: Whenever you buy a flight ticket, you must be paying separately for a window seat or a front seat. In Britain, many people are paying extra money to get their favorite seat. A new report by digital health platform Numan claims that due to increasing concern about seats, people are not only paying more money, but sometimes even cancel their travel plans. This trend is now being called comfort tax.
According to this report, many passengers only fear that they may not get the middle seat or may have to sit apart from the family. In such a situation, people are paying extra money to choose the seat during ticket booking itself. This is becoming a major source of income for airlines, while it is having a direct impact on the pockets of passengers.
What is comfort tax?
Comfort tax is not a government tax. This is the extra money that the passengers themselves spend for their convenience. Like choosing a window seat, extra legroom, front row or a seat to sit with the family.
