Malaysia Airlines parent company may consider a green tax as sustainable fuel strains airlines

The head of Malaysia Airlines' parent company stated on Monday that the organization may consider implementing a green tax on passengers. The potential levy is being explored as a method to offset the significant financial burden associated with the procurement of sustainable aviation fuel.

This proposal comes as airlines face increasing pressure to adopt environmentally friendly fuels, which currently command higher costs than traditional alternatives. If implemented, the tax would likely result in an increase in ticket prices for travelers.
