JAL Maintains International Fare Fuel Surcharge for February to March 2012

Friday, 16 December 2011

Japan Airlines (JAL) will maintain current levels of fuel surcharge on all international passenger tickets issued between February 1, 2012 and March 31, 2012.
 
JAL sets fuel surcharge levels bimonthly based on the 2-month average price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel. The price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel during the two month period of October and November 2011 averaged US$125.75 per barrel. With reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for the fiscal year of 2011 (see below), this corresponds to Zone G of fuel surcharges which range from 2,500 yen on a Japan - Korea ticket to 25,000 yen on a Japan - USA ticket per person per sector flown, on tickets purchased in Japan.
 
This level of surcharge will be applied to all international passenger tickets issued between February 1, 2012 and March 31, 2012.
Fuel Surcharge for the period: February 1, 2012 - March 31, 2012*
