JAL to reduce fuel surcharges on int'l flights tickets as fuel price falls

TOKYO - Japan Airlines Co. said Tuesday that it will reduce its fuel surcharge for tickets for international flights to be issued in September and October, as fuel prices hiked by the U.S.-Iran war declined in June and July.

JAL will lower the surcharge for one-way tickets to North America and Europe to 50,000 yen ($313) from the record high 65,000 yen for July and August. The surcharges for tickets to China and Taiwan will be reduced to 12,400 yen from 16,900 yen.
