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 December 1, 2023 and January 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 August a nd September 2023 averaged USD 119.25 per barrel, which accounted for JPY 17,429 in the average exchange rate of JPY/USD 146.15 during the same period.
As a result, with reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2023, this corresponds to Zone L from December 2023 to January 2024.
Fuel Surcharge for the period: December 1, 2023 to January 31, 2024
(*1) Russia –> Irkutsk (*2) Russia –> Novosibirsk
For full details about JAL’s fuel surcharge policy, please refer to http://www.jal.co.jp/en/inter/if.html . The surcharge applies to flights operated by Japan Airlines as well as code share flights operated by other airlines. The planned level of fuel surcharge is subject to government approval.
