ANA today applied to the Ministry of Land Infrastructure and Transport to remove its fuel surcharge on international flights from July 1, 2009.

The fuel surcharge is currently fixed for a period of three months, and subsequently revised on the basis of the average market price of Singapore kerosene for the three months previous to the month of application for revision. Jet fuel fell to an average of US$55.08 per barrel from February to April this year, and ANA is pleased to be able to pass on the benefit of that fall to its valued customers.
