JAL Announces International Fare Fuel Surcharge for Tickets Issued Between April and May 2024
Tokyo, JAPAN - 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 April 1 and May 31, 2024.
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 December 2023 and January
2024 averaged USD101.72 per barrel, which accounted for JPY14,775 in the average exchange rate of JPY/USD145.26 during the same period.
As a result, with reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2024, this corresponds to Zone I from April to May 2024.
