According to Jin10, Singapore will introduce the world's first green aviation fuel surcharge for departing flights, with tickets bought from Thursday for travel after January 1 next year facing an extra charge of 1 Singapore dollar to 41.60 Singapore dollars per ticket, depending on cabin class and destination. The fees will be used to promote the use of sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) and help reduce aviation's climate impact. The surcharge does not apply to transit passengers, and the International Air Transport Association said in a June report that ticket prices "inevitably need to rise" as the aviation industry faces higher costs from rising jet fuel prices caused by the Iran war.
