As a result of a further escalation in the price of jet fuel recently, Singapore Airlines will increase its fuel surcharge for tickets issued on or after December 4, 2007.

The price of jet fuel has increased sharply in recent weeks, and is now hovering around US$115 per barrel.

The new levels will apply to Singapore Airlines and SilkAir flights. On regional routes, a surchage of US$26 per sector, for flights between Singapore and ASEAN countries, will be added. The previous rate was US$24.

The new surcharge is subject to official approval in some markets, and some local variations may apply where regulatory approvals dictate.

The adjustments will offer only partial relief of higher operating costs arising from increases in the price of jet fuel. Singapore Airlines will continue to monitor the price of jet fuel and keep the application of the fuel surcharge under active review.
