Caribbean Airlines has announced the immediate introduction of a fuel surcharge on all tickets saying it is to help offset rising costs.
This is due mainly to the war in the Middle east involving the United States, Israel and Iran that has led to significant increases in oil and gas prices.
CAL says the fuel surcharge of between US$15 and US$25 per sector will apply, varying based on route.
It says there is no increase in the airline's base fares.
CAL says it is important to note that the surcharge does not fully compensate for the increase in fuel expenses and that the airline continues to absorb a significant share of these costs to minimise the impact on customers.
Customers who purchased tickets prior to Friday, April 10 will not incur any additional charge.
