JAL reviews its fuel surcharges every other month.

JAL will increase fuel surcharges applicable to tickets issued in February and March 2025 (and potentially beyond) from their current levels. The airline filed the following one-way surcharges with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport, and Tourism for tickets departing from Japan:

  • South Korea, Russian Far East: 3,000 yen (currently 2,500 yen)
  • East Asia (excluding Mongolia and South Korea): 7,400 yen (6,200 yen)
  • Guam, Palao, Philippines, Vietnam, Mongolia, Irkutsk: 9,500 yen (8,000 yen)
  • Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei, Novosibirsk: 15,500 yen (13,000 yen)
  • Hawaii, Indonesia, India, Sri Lanka: 18,500 yen (16,000 yen)
  • North America, Europe, Middle East, Oceania: 29,000 yen (25,000 yen)

The airline revises its international ticket fuel surcharges every two months based on a schedule tied to Singapore’s kerosene price. The upcoming fuel surcharge rates correspond to “Zone H,” i.e. the price being 13,000 and 13,999 yen, based on average price of 13,429 yen per barrel.
