It's cheaper to fly!
A number of airlines have announced that they will reduce fuel surcharges for domestic routes from October 5, 2024 (the date of ticket issuance).
Among them, a fuel surcharge of 10 yuan will be charged for each passenger on routes below 800 kilometers (inclusive), and a fuel surcharge of 20 yuan per passenger will be charged for routes above 800 kilometers, which is 20 yuan and 30 yuan lower than the adjusted prices four months ago
Special passenger groups such as children (including unaccompanied minors), revolutionary disabled veterans, and people's police officers disabled in the line of duty are exempted from the charge of 10 yuan per passenger per flight segment for segments below 800 kilometers (inclusive).
In order to reduce the risk of jet fuel price fluctuations to a certain extent and ensure the operation of airlines, airlines can independently determine the standard of passenger fuel surcharge collection for domestic routes within the prescribed scope.
Aviation officials told reporters that domestic routes are subject to fuel surcharges, and the mechanism of linkage with aviation kerosene prices is adopted.
According to the reporter's understanding, 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.
Popular science tips
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, direct flights within Xinjiang such as Altay, Turpan, Aksu, and Yining are free of charge.
