FlySafair has announced a further reduction to its Dynamic Fuel Surcharge, with current charges now 40% below the peak reached in late March.
This week’s reduction is the most significant since the surcharge was introduced, marking a 32% decrease over the past two weeks.
The surcharge was introduced in March after conflict in the Middle East disrupted global oil supply routes and pushed jet fuel prices sharply higher.
However, in recent weeks, both the availability and cost of jet fuel had improved, reported the airline. Refining margins for jet fuel have also eased.
“We’re encouraged to see some relief in jet fuel prices, and we’re pleased to be able to pass that benefit on to our customers,” said Kirby Gordon, Chief Marketing Officer at FlySafair. “When we introduced the surcharge, we committed to reviewing it weekly and reducing it as soon as conditions allowed. This latest adjustment reflects that commitment to transparency and fairness.”
