China raises fuel surcharges on domestic flights
From Nov.
5, China increased fuel surcharges on domestic flights.
Adult passengers now pay 80 yuan for a flight segment of 800 km or less and 140 yuan for a longer segment.
Those charges are up 30 yuan and 50 yuan, respectively, from the previous rates.
The surcharge is added to the cost of domestic air travel, so passengers face higher fees.
Infants who qualify for the specified infant fare are exempt, while children and certain other eligible passengers pay half the adult surcharge.
The new rates apply from Nov.
5; no further changes are specified.
