Air India to levy fuel surcharge: Full region-wise price hike list and implementation timeline
US-Iran war: Air India on Tuesday announced that it will impose a fuel surcharge on both domestic and international routes. The airline cited a steep rise in jet fuel prices, driven by the geopolitical situation in the Gulf region.
In a press release, Air India said that Aviation Turbine Fuel (ATF), which accounts for nearly 40% of an airline’s operating costs, has seen significant price escalation since early March 2026 due to supply disruptions.
