JAL Announces International Fare Fuel Surcharge for Tickets Issued Between June and July 2020
Japan Airlines (JAL) has requested for approval from Japan`s Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism (MLIT) to set the level of fuel surcharge on international passenger tickets purchased in Japan between June 1 and July 31, 2020.
JAL sets fuel surcharge levels bimonthly based on the two month average price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel. The price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel during the two month period of February and March 2020 averaged US$50.62 per barrel, which accounted for 5,494 yen in the average exchange rate of 108.53 JPY/USD during the same period.
As a result, with reference to the benchmark list for FY2020, fuel surcharges will not be collected for tickets issued between June and July 2020.
