From Singapore Airlines to cut fuel surcharge
Singapore Airlines to cut fuel surcharge
8/09/2008 10:45:05 PM
Singapore Airlines (SIA) said it would cut fuel surcharges on some of its international flights, including to Australia, after recent declines in jet fuel prices.
The cuts, ranging from $US4 to $US10 ($A4.80 to $A12.00), will take effect on Tuesday and apply to flights from Singapore to South-East Asian countries, New Zealand and other East Asian destinations, as well as Australia, SIA said in a statement.
SIA also is cutting the surcharges on flights from Singapore to South Asia, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, flights between Dubai and Istanbul, the Dubai-Moscow route and the Bangkok-Tokyo service, it said.
The surcharges on long-haul flights, including between Singapore and the United States and Canada, were unchanged.
In a separate statement, SIA's regional wing SilkAir also announced cuts of $US4 to $US10 ($A4.80 to $A12.00) in its fuel surcharges for all flights starting on Tuesday.
SilkAir flies to popular holiday destinations including those in South-East Asia, China and India.
Crude oil prices have eased 27 per cent from record highs of above $US147 ($A176.45) reached in July on growing worries about a US-led global economic slowdown.
