NEW DELHI: Fuel surcharge being charged by domestic airlines seems to be defying the law of gravity. While airlines have in past few months hiked the surcharge, every time when aviation turbine fuel (ATF) prices rose, similar reduction of cess didn't happen with jet fuel price now going down.
According to prices for February announced by oil PSUs, ATF is getting cheaper in all cities — for the second time this year. But airlines are refusing to pass on this benefit to passengers. So surcharge remains unchanged at Rs 1,650 per ticket.
