Jet Airways to charge revised surcharge from May 4

Mumbai, May 3 (UNI) Jet Airways announced today that the airline will revise the fuel surcharge by Rs 150, applicable on all types of fares in both Club Premiere and Economy Class tickets, on all domestic routes in the country.

The revised surcharges will be effective from May 4, a Jet Airways release said.

According to Jet Airways, the surcharge has been necessitated in view of the continuing escalation in Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) prices, which have gone up by 3.5 per cent from May 1.

The fuel surcharge has been revised from Rs 750 to Rs 900 recently.

However, for tickets issued outside India, a surcharge of US 20 dollars will be applicable on each sector of domestic travel in India.

It is also applicable on all domestic segments, even if the domestic segment is part of an international journey.

The surcharge will not be applicable on sale of tickets made on or before May 3 as per the ticketed itinerary.

However, the surcharge will be applicable if tickets are presented for any voluntary change on or after May 4. Jet Privilege redemption tickets for domestic travel is exempted from this fuel surcharge, the release added.
