Ten Hong Kong and domestic airliners will reduce fuel surcharges on international flights from December 1 as oil prices decline, Huaxia Times reported today.

Cathay Pacific Airways said on its Website that it will cut the fuel surcharge on long-distant routes to HK$466 (US$60) from HK$481, including flights from Hong Kong to Southwest Pacific, North America, Europe, Middle East, India, Africa and Bangkok.

It will reduce the surcharge on short-distant routes to HK$113 from HK$117, including flights from Hong Kong to Japan, South Korea, New York and Vancouver

Other airliners, including Air China, China Southern Airlines, China Eastern Airlines, Xiamen Airlines and Dragon Air, will also reduce fuel surcharges to HK$113 on international routes, the report said.

The new levy standard will be valid until January 31.

But the fuel surcharges for domestic routes are the same at 60 yuan (US$7.63) for flights shorter than 800 kilometers and 100 yuan for flights longer than 800 kilometers.
