It will be lowered from October 5

It is understood that the fuel surcharge adjustment will be the third reduction in the year after January and June this year. It is important to note that the fuel surcharge price is calculated based on the time of ticket issuance. Tickets issued after 5 October will be eligible for the new price. For tickets issued before October 5, even if you travel on October 15, the fuel surcharge is still the original 30 yuan and 50 yuan.

What is a fuel surcharge? Why does it change so often?

The fuel surcharge is the cost of aircraft flight fuel. Aviation fuel is different from gasoline and diesel used in ordinary cars, the production cost and transportation cost are very high, and the price is affected by international oil prices, so shipping companies will charge fuel fees according to the changes in international oil prices.

Are there any fuel surcharge-free flights?

Not yet. However, there are free machine construction fees, and many domestic ARJ21 and other regional models have a discount of 50 yuan for machine construction fees. For example, Altay, which has been very popular recently, and direct flights in Xinjiang such as Turpan, Aksu, and Yining are all free of charge.
