Local flag carrier Air Macau Co. Ltd. is to increase fuel surcharges for passenger flights, effective January 17. Surcharges of the airline will increase from US$5 (MOP40) per sector to US$7.5, according to a press release from the company. Increased charges will be applicable to flights originating from Macau for Mainland China, Taiwan, Thailand, South Korea, Japan and Vietnam. The press release reads that the same fuel surcharge amount will apply to all flight tickets for adults, children and infants. Since March 2016, the airline ceased levying passenger fuel surcharges for all air tickets originating from Macau, resuming them in July last year.
