The reporter learned from the Civil Aviation Administration yesterday (3rd) that Air China, Ruili Airlines, Lucky Air and many other airlines will resume levying fuel surcharges for domestic routes from November 5th. This is also from January 2019. After the expropriation was stopped, the expropriation was resumed for the first time.
The standard for levying fuel surcharges on domestic routes is that adult passengers will be charged RMB 10 for each passenger on routes below 800 kilometers (inclusive), and each passenger on routes above 800 kilometers will be charged a fuel surcharge of 20 yuan.
Taking the Beijing-Shanghai route as an example, the flight distance from Beijing Capital International Airport to Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport is 1178 kilometers. According to the rules, a one-way ticket will be charged a fuel surcharge of 20 yuan.
Civil aviation experts said that fuel surcharges are levied based on oil prices, and the rise or fall of the fees depends on changes in oil prices.
Qi Qi, associate professor of Guangzhou Civil Aviation Vocational and Technical College: The levy of aviation fuel surcharges this time is mainly affected by the continued high international aviation fuel prices. From the perspective of airlines, fuel prices continue to rise, and there will be high operating cost pressures. .
It is understood that my country began to levy fuel surcharges in 2015. At that time, according to a notice issued by the National Development and Reform Commission, airlines could charge fuel surcharges when the purchase cost of domestic aviation kerosene exceeded 5,000 yuan per ton.
