Press Release
JAL Cargo Fuel Surcharge from the Month of May 2016
TOKYO April 8, 2016: Japan Airlines (JAL) has applied to the Japanese Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) to revise its international cargo fuel surcharge for flights departing from Japan from May 1, 2016.
Since April 1, 2009, JAL started adjusting its cargo fuel surcharge levels on a monthly basis by using the one-month average fuel price of Singapore kerosene of the month before last. As the average fuel price of Singapore kerosene for the month of March in 2016 was US$47.24 per barrel, the benchmark fuel price used for calculation of the fuel surcharge level will be within the range of US$45.00 to US$49.99 per barrel (refer to table below).
The international cargo fuel surcharge will therefore be 17 yen per kg on long-haul international routes, 9 yen per kg on medium-haul international routes, and 3 yen on short-haul routes.
