FUEL SURCHARGE INCREASE



British Airways will increase its fuel surcharge on all tickets issued from
Friday May 2, 2008.



The decision reflects continuing high oil prices.



The changes will mean:

  • The surcharge for short haul flights will increase by £3 per flight (£6
    return) from £10 per flight (£20 return) to £13 per flight (£26 return).
  • The surcharge for long haul flights of less than nine hours will increase
    by £10 per flight (£20 return) from £53 to £63 per flight (£126).
  • The surcharge for long haul flights of more than nine hours will increase
    by £15 per flight (£30 return) from £64 to £79 per flight (£158 return).



British Airways will also increase its fuel surcharges by similar levels in
markets outside the UK.
