Hong Kong aviation giant Cathay Pacific announced Thursday it was raising fuel surcharges on all flights by 34 percent as a result of increasing oil costs due to the Middle East war.
"The price of jet fuel comprises both the crude oil component and the refinery
component, both of which have increased significantly in recent weeks," the company said in a statement.
It also shared a list outlining surcharge increases on short-haul flights of 34.1 percent, while medium- and long-haul would increase by 34.0 percent.
