CAB slashes airline fuel surcharge

Manila Bulletin

|

May 29, 2026

Filipinos will have access to cheaper plane tickets starting next month as the government lowered the fuel surcharge that airlines may collect on top of the base fare, following the continued easing of jet fuel prices in the global market.

In an advisory on Thursday, May 28, the Civil Aeronautics Board (CAB) slashed the fuel surcharge by two notches to Level 13 for the booking period of June 1 to 15.

This is the lowest level since CAB was left with no choice but to raise the fuel surcharge to a record Level 19 during the second half of April, when jet fuel prices nearly doubled to $190 per barrel.
