Air India has reduced fuel surcharges on select long-haul international routes, including North America, Europe, the UK, and Australia, following a recent decline in global crude oil and aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices. The airline stated that easing fuel costs have allowed it to lower the additional charges imposed on tickets, which were previously raised during periods of high oil prices and geopolitical disruptions. The reduction is expected to make international air travel more affordable, as fuel surcharges form a significant part of ticket prices. Industry reports suggest cuts of up to 39% on some routes, offering relief to passengers planning long-haul travel. Experts say this move could also improve travel demand during the peak international season. (PC: ANI)
