JAL Announces International Fare Fuel Surcharge for Tickets Issued between October and November 2014
TOKYOAugust 19, 2014: Japan Airlines (JAL) has requested for approval from the Japanese Ministry of Land,
Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) to revise down the fuel surcharge applied on all international passenger
tickets issued on/after October 1, 2014.
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 June and July 2014
averaged US$119.84 per barrel. With reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2014,
this corresponds to Zone F of fuel surcharges. From October to November 2014,
it will range from 2,000 yen on a Japan - Korea ticket to 21,000 yen on a Japan - USA ticket per person
per sector flown, on tickets purchased in Japan.
This updated level of fuel surcharge will be applied to all international passenger tickets issued
between October 1 and November 30, 2014.
Fuel Surcharge for the period: October 1 ~ November 30, 2014
