SINGAPORE – Singapore Airlines (SIA) is trimming fuel surcharges on some of its international flights, starting today.
The move has been prompted by the recent fall in the price of crude oil.
The cuts, ranging from $US4 to $US10, will apply to flights from Singapore to South-East Asian countries, New Zealand and other East Asian destinations, as well as Australia.
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, are unchanged.
SIA’s regional wing SilkAir has also announced cuts of $US4 to $US10 in its fuel surcharges for all flights starting today.
