"Private jet travel has surged in the US over the last few years and now accounts for one in every six flights handled by the Federal Aviation Administration's air-traffic controllers. But this heavily polluting form of travel, which is enjoyed by the ultra-wealthy, is hugely subsidized by average American taxpayers.

Private jet travelers pay just two percent of the taxes used to fund the FAA, according to a report published in May 2023 by the Institute for Policy Studies and Patriotic Millionaires."
