JAL Announces International Fare Fuel Surcharge For Tickets Issued
Between June And July 2017
Tokyo April 13, 2017: Japan Airlines (JAL) announces that it will maintain the current level of fuel
surcharge on all international passenger tickets purchased between June 1 and July 31, 2017.
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
February and March 2017 averaged US$63.98 per barrel, which accounted for 7,232 yen in the
average exchange rate of 113.04 JPY/USD during the same period.
As a result, with reference to the fuel surcharge benchmark list for FY2017 in Japanese yen, this
corresponds to zone B of fuel surcharges. From June 1 to July 31, 2017, it will continually range from
300 yen on a Japan – Korea ticket to 7,000 yen on Japan – USA ticket per person per sector flown, on
tickets for travel originating in Japan.
