The vast majority of the travel trade wants to accept the Air Passenger Duty rise and "get on with it", according to a TravelMole Poll.
We asked: "APD unchanged: should we just get on and accept it?"
The poll received 15,670 votes, of which nearly 98% voted "yes, we should accept it", while only 2% disagreed.
A rise in APD came into force on Monday, despite fierce campaigning from the travel industry.
The new rates mean a family of four flying in economy class to Florida will now pay £268 in APD, while a family of four flying to the Caribbean will pay £332.
Simon Buck, chief executive of the British Air Transport Association, a member of the Fair Tax on Flying campaign, said: "It’s not good enough to continue increasing APD when the clear economic evidence shows that it both damages the UK economy and adds hundreds of pounds onto the annual tax bill of many families who fly overseas every year."
