FlySafair has reduced its temporary fuel surcharge for the second consecutive week, reflecting a slight downward movement in jet fuel prices following the spike triggered by the Middle East conflict.
Since April 14, FlySafair’s fuel surcharge has decreased by four percent across two consecutive weekly adjustments.
While jet fuel prices are decreasing, they remain more than double pre-conflict levels.
The surcharge will remain in place until the fuel price stabilises at sustainable levels. The current levy runs until August 21.
“When we introduced this surcharge in March, we made a commitment: it would be dynamic, reviewed weekly, and reduced as soon as fuel pricing allowed,” says Kirby Gordon, Chief Marketing Officer at FlySafair.
“We’ve adjusted the levy every week since it was introduced, and these two consecutive reductions reflect that commitment in action. The surcharge is not a revenue mechanism; it moves directly with our actual fuel costs. We appreciate our customers’ patience while global fuel markets remain under pressure.”
