Tokyo, JAPAN - Japan Airlines (JAL) has announced the continuation of the current fuel surcharge on international passenger tickets purchased in Japan between December 1, 2025 and January 31, 2026.
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 August and September 2025 averaged USD 85.72 per barrel, which accounted for JPY 12,670 in the average exchange rate of JPY/USD 147.80 during the same period.
As a result, with reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2025, this will continue to correspond to Zone G from December 2025 to January 2026.
