The fuel surcharge will be reduced from August 5!Buy a ticket for a ticket up to 60 yuan

On the evening of July 29, the reporter learned from Feizhu and where to go, the platform has received news from a number of domestic airlines, and will adjust the domestic route passengers to transport fuel surcharges on August 5.

Flying pigs have received notice from domestic airlines such as Oriental Airlines, Shanghai Airlines, and Colorful Guizhou Airlines. From 0:00 on August 5, 2022 (ticket date), the domestic flight fuel surcharge collection standards are adjusted. The standard is to charge 80 yuan fuel surcharge per passenger for adult passengers with 800 kilometers (inclusive), and each passenger of more than 800 kilometers is charged for 140 yuan per passenger, which is reduced by 20 yuan and 60 yuan compared to the adjustment before adjustment. This is also the first time that domestic airlines have restored the fuel surcharge in February this year.

According to the adjustment of this fuel surcharge, in the case of excluding domestic aircraft exemption, adult ticket domestic travel costs will start from 130 yuan, and the construction fee of airport airports above 800 kilometers plus fuel fee will reach 190 yuan Essence

According to the person in charge of Qunar's ticket, the platform data shows that as of July 28, the fuel surcharge expenditure on the platform increased by an average of 46 yuan per person compared with June, and the cost of fuel surcharges became one of the factors affecting passenger travel. In this fuel surcharge adjustment, passengers bought a ticket after August 5 compared to 60 yuan compared to July 5.

In February this year, the airline recovered the domestic route of fuel surcharges. In just half a year, the fuel surcharge collection standards have been raised five consecutive times from the initial 10/20 yuan to 100/200 yuan. Because the fuel surcharges caused by international aerospace oil continued to soar, many passengers talked about "air ticket assassins", and the cost of fuel surcharges became a major factor affecting passenger travel.

Lan Xiang, dean of Qunar Big Data Research Institute, analyzed that the reduction in fuel surcharges is good for the entire industry. First of all, the cost of fuel fuel for airlines has declined. The flight that was canceled due to cost reasons can now be performed. For passengers, the reduction of fuel surcharges can directly reduce the cost of travel. Passengers have more ways to travel, while stimulating the increased willingness to travel. At present, the average fare of the industry has gradually fallen in the near future. After the fuel surcharge on August 5th has declined, it will promote passenger summer travel to a certain extent.
