102% tax on an air ticket?

[walesrob]

Just been looking at flights to Hong Kong in November, and found one for just £75 each-way with Oasis HK, BUT the tax, charges, etc is an additional £76 just on the London - Hong Kong segment :cwm24:

BUT on the return HK - London, its only £39 tax/charges. Rip off UK? Nah, dont know what you mean.

claim back some VAT at the airport to offset it :xxgrinning--00xx3:

It's surely that the airline tax is different between a departure and an arrival as you use less the airport and terminal facilities at arrival than at departure.
And taxes are surely higher in England than in HongKong...
