FUEL SURCHARGE INCREASE

British Airways will increase its fuel surcharge on longhaul services from Thursday, December 16.

There will be no fuel surcharge increase to any British Airways' shorthaul services.

All longhaul tickets will increase by £10 per sector (£20 return).

The move reflects the substantial recent increase in the price of oil.

The change will mean:

·      For World Traveller flights over nine hours an increase of £10 per sector to £76. On flights of less than nine hours an increase of £10 per sector to £63.

·      For World Traveller Plus flights over nine hours an increase of £10 per sector to £94.50. On flights of less than nine hours an increase of £10 per sector to £73.

·      For First and Club World flights over nine hours an increase of £10 per sector to £108. On flights of less than nine hours an increase of £10 to £88.
