Indonesia raises jet fuel surcharge

Cape Argus

|

April 07, 2026

INDONESIA announced yesterday a 28-percentage point rise in the surcharge on jet fuel, and said it will allow airlines to raise the domestic ticket price, which the government caps, by up to 13%.

As global oil prices soar on the back of the Middle East war, Economy Minister Airlangga Hartarto told reporters the jet fuel surcharge would rise from 10 to 38%, and the base ticket price between nine and 13%.

Southeast Asia's largest low-cost carrier AirAsia X said yesterday it, too, was raising ticket prices and cutting routes to cushion the impact of the war on Iran.

In Jakarta, Airlangga said the government would bear the 11% value added tax on domestic flight tickets to offset the impact of the price rise on travellers.
