Due to the further
increase in fuel prices China Eastern Airlines decided to increase
its fuel surcharge on all cargo shipments on 16 February 2006 to
reflect the rising costs that China Eastern Airlines is exposed to.
The current level of the fuel surcharge will be adjusted to £
0.34 per kilo for all shipments originating from the UK and
€
0.50 per kilo for
shipments originating from the Republic of Ireland.
The charge is based on actual weight and will be implemented across
the United Kingdom and Republic of Ireland. This charge will remain
in effect until further notice.
