There are no facts, only interpretations

You may remember a report from A4E earlier this year claiming that its members are paying 80% more in airport charges in 2014 than they were back in 2005. Europe’s 21 largest airports – which account for 50% of passengers – were accused of increasing their charges by up to 255%. This report was cited as evidence that airports were abusing their market power and that further regulation is necessary. A4E were also at pains to point out that, in contrast, airlines had reduced their airfares by 20% over the same period. It’s a modern day tale of good versus evil.
