Japan Airlines (JAL) has requested for approval from the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) to revise down the fuel surcharges applied on all international passenger tickets issued between February 1 and March 31, 2013 as detailed below.
JAL sets fuel surcharge levels bimonthly based on the 2-month average price of Singapore resort and spa hotels kerosene-type jet fuel. The price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel during the two month period of October and November 2012 averaged resort and spa hotels US$127.65 per barrel. With reference to the benchmark list for fiscal year 2012 (see below), this corresponds resort and spa hotels to Zone G of fuel surcharges which from February 2013, will range from 2,200 yen on a Japan - Korea ticket to 23,500 yen on a Japan - USA ticket per person per sector flown, on tickets purchased in Japan.
For the convenience of customers and travel agents, the following chart provides details of the fuel price benchmarks (US$/bbl) JAL uses, to determine the amount of fuel surcharge (JPY) placed on tickets per person per sector flown.
