JAL Announces International Fare Fuel Surcharge For Tickets Issued
Between February And March 2016
Tokyo December 16, 2015: Japan Airlines (JAL) will maintain current levels of fuel surcharge on all
international passenger tickets purchased between February 1 and March 31, 2016.
JAL sets fuel surcharge levels bimonthly based on the 2-month average price of Singapore kerosene-type jet
fuel. The price of Singapore kerosene-type jet fuel during the two month period of October and November 2015
averaged US$58.37 per barrel, which accounted for 7,077 yen in the average exchange rate of 121.24 JPY/USD
during the same period.
As a result, with reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2015 in Japanese yen, this corresponds to
Zone B of fuel surcharges. From February to March 2016, it will range from 300 yen on a Japan - Korea ticket
to 7,000 yen on a Japan - USA ticket per person per sector flown, on tickets for travel originating in Japan.
