IndiGo announces revised fuel charges
The company has announced revised fuel charges ranging from Rs 275 to Rs 10,000. The announcement from the country's largest airline comes on a day when the Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF) prices were revised, and the government decided to only partially hike the price by 25 per cent for the domestic flights.
The fuel charge will be Rs 275 for domestic flights on routes that are 0-500 kms long and Rs 400 for flights that fly 501-1,000 kms.
The amount will be Rs 600 for 1,001-1,500 kms, Rs 800 for 1,501-2,000 kms and Rs 950 for distances above 2,000 kms.
Currently, the airline levies a flat fuel surcharge on domestic flights.
From March 14 onwards, Indigo has been levying fuel charges ranging from Rs 425 to Rs 2,300 on domestic and international flight tickets as the fuel prices jumped in the wake of the West Asia conflict.
