Flying is disastrous for the climate, it should be much more expensive and regulated.
Getting rid of hidden bullshit fees is good but we really don't want more people flying, we want less.
Getting rid of these fees means they will be displayed in the overall cost, which might in turn reduce the number of people flying.
30€ flights (that you end up paying more due to these hidden costs) are definitely part of the problem.
