JAL Group Applies for Revision of IATA International Fares
Tokyo, December 26, 2006: Today, the JAL Group filed an application with the Japanese Ministry of Land Infrastructure, and Transport (MLIT) requesting a revision of IATA international normal and PEX airfares applicable for Japan departures.
Based on agreements adopted at IATA Tariff Coordinating Conferences held during the year, the revision will lead to increases in the price of IATA international normal and PEX airfares, as well as normal and PEX airfare weekend surcharges for flights departing Japan.
The revision will take effect from April 1, 2007, pending government approval.
