Mumbai: Domestic private carriers, Jet Airways and Kingfisher Airlines, today raised fuel surcharges by up to Rs200 on domestic flights with immediate effect.
"Effective today, the fuel surcharge levied by Kingfisher Airlines for travel on domestic sector stands revised upward," a Kingfisher Airlines statement said.
The fuel surcharge on flights below 1,000 kilometres has been hiked by Rs100 while for flights above 1,000 kilometres it would be Rs200, the statement said.
Jet Airways also said fuel surcharge had been increased by up to Rs200 on all its domestic flights across Jet Airways, JetLite and Jet Konnect with immediate effect.
