TOKYO, June 21, 2021 – Japan Airlines (JAL) will maintain current levels of fuel surcharge on international passenger tickets purchased in Japan between August 1 and September 30,2021.
JAL sets fuel surcharge levels bimonthly based on the two-month average price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel.

As a result, with reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2021, this corresponds to Zone B. From August 1 to September 30, 2021.
