NEW DELHI, June 9 (Reuters) - India has launched a previously announced jet fuel price-stabilisation scheme for local airlines, with aviation turbine fuel to be sold to carriers at a fixed price of 115 rupees ($1.21) per litre, 10% higher than previous prices, three industry sources said. Here are some details about the scheme:

• If airlines join the scheme they will have to pay the fixed price of 115 rupees/litre for up to three years, even if global prices decline, as the extra payment will be used to replenish the fund.

• Airlines that do not opt in to the scheme will continue to pay market-linked prices, which may be higher or lower than the fixed price.

• Indian airlines have so far not joined, two of the sources said.

• Earlier this month, India ‌approved the 100 billion rupee fund for the scheme, amid rising costs linked to the Iran ​war.

• The support will be ​provided in the form of interest-free advances to oil marketing companies to cover under-recoveries - the ​gap between market-linked jet fuel ​prices and the moderated rates charged to airlines.

• Jet fuel ​prices ⁠account for up to 40% of airlines' operating costs.

RIO DE JANEIRO, June 4 (Reuters) - Global airline bosses gathering in Rio de Janeiro this weekend will be searching for answers to the industry's biggest crisis since the pandemic, with the Iran war driving up jet fuel costs, forcing flight detours and testing carriers' ability to raise fares.

The June 6-8 annual meeting of the International Air Transport Association (IATA) is the industry's biggest summit, bringing together hundreds of top executives from airlines, manufacturers, suppliers and financiers.

IATA represents more than 370 airlines accounting for some 85% of global air traffic, giving it a central role in a sector where profits were expected to reach a record $41 billion this year before the Iran war began.

Industry executives and analysts expect a downgrade to that forecast at the meeting, where discussions are expected to center on surging fuel prices and supply fears, disruptions to Middle Eastern airspace, deepening aircraft delivery delays and whether airlines are falling further behind on climate goals.

Airlines around the world have already been responding by raising fares, cutting unprofitable routes and conserving cash until pressures ease, raising more questions about whether they can meet IATA's goal of net-zero emissions by 2050 given the high cost and limited supply of sustainable aviation fuel.

Moody's Ratings last week cut its global airline sector outlook to negative from stable, saying fuel costs tied to the Iran war and disruption around the Strait of Hormuz would "materially reduce" operating profit this year. It said profits could fall by more than 35% in 2026 before recovering next year.

IATA data showed global passenger traffic contracted in April for the first time since the post-pandemic recovery, led by a sharp drop at Middle Eastern carriers.

Air India's outgoing CEO Campbell Wilson said higher fuel prices and airspace closures were making some routes harder to justify.

"When you take on all those competitive dynamics, the added cost of this extra flying, the added cost to fuel, it just makes some routes uneconomic," he said.

MIXED PICTURE FOR AIRLINES

Airlines with stronger demand and greater premium traffic have more room to raise fares, but the ability to recover fuel costs is uneven across markets and business models.

Southwest Airlines LUV.N CEO Bob Jordan, whose carrier joined IATA last year, said U.S. carriers had raised fares on seven occasions since February without seeing demand weaken. But he said fares were still "not close" to covering current fuel costs.

Gulf carriers face a particular test. Emirates and Qatar Airways rely heavily on hubs in Dubai and Doha, while Etihad Airways is expanding again from Abu Dhabi after scaling back earlier global ambitions.

The Iran war has not broken the Gulf hub model, but detours have exposed its reliance on accessible airspace and stable routes, lengthening flight times and increasing fuel burn.

The disruption is also creating openings on some long-haul flows for airlines offering non-stop flights between Asia and Europe, including Lufthansa Group LHAG.DE, Air France-KLM AIRF.PA, Singapore Airlines SIAL.SI and Cathay Pacific 0293.HK.

For European carriers, the picture is mixed. Some may benefit from Gulf airline troubles on long-haul routes, avoiding the most disrupted airspace, but higher fuel costs are compounding pressure from closed Russian airspace, air traffic control disruption and sustainable aviation fuel mandates.

In Asia, Air India faces higher fuel costs and longer routings, while IndiGo remains exposed to aircraft shortages and Pratt & Whitney RTX.N engine issues. Currency weakness is amplifying fuel costs for Japanese carriers, while Air New Zealand AIR.NZ has warned of a sharp earnings hit.

In Latin America, the fuel shock is colliding with currency swings and consumers with limited room to absorb fare increases, even as limited competition gives some carriers more room to pass on costs. LATAM LTM.SN has cut its earnings forecast due to fuel costs, while Brazil's Azul AZUL3.SA remains exposed to fuel prices and currency volatility.

AIRCRAFT AND ENGINE SHORTAGES

Delayed Boeing BA.N and Airbus AIR.PA deliveries, meanwhile, are forcing airlines to keep older, less fuel-efficient jets in service, adding to margin pressure.

United Airlines UAL.O CEO Scott Kirby said engines and components had become the key constraint, estimating that 800 to 900 aircraft worldwide were grounded due to engine issues.

"There are not enough engines and they're not going to be for many, many years," Kirby said at a Bernstein conference last week.

The fuel shock is also driving talk of sector consolidation, as airlines with thinner margins and less pricing power struggle to absorb higher costs, underscored by the collapse last month of U.S. no-frills pioneer Spirit Airlines.

U.S. firm Castlelake, an aircraft lessor and investor in Scandinavia's SAS, has said it is considering a possible offer for British budget carrier easyJet EZJ.L, while United's recent informal merger approach to American Airlines AAL.O has put U.S. dealmaking back in focus, even after American rejected the idea and Washington signaled resistance.

Rewrites throughout with IndiGo cuts and background

By Abhijith Ganapavaram and Aditya Kalra

May 27 (Reuters) - IndiGo INGL.NS and Air India, India's two largest airlines, have sharply cut their planned domestic flights for June and July, sources familiar with the matter said, as the industry grapples with a rise in jet fuel costs in the wake of the Iran war.

IndiGo has cut around 7%-10% of its planned domestic flights for the period, while Air India has cut 22%, the sources said, marking a significant pullback by the two carriers that together control around 90% of India's domestic air passenger market.

The sources declined to be named as they were not authorised to share the information.

The cuts could tighten seat availability on some domestic routes and keep fares elevated during the busy summer travel period, even as airlines try to avoid flying loss-making services.

The Iran war-driven surge in jet fuel prices has blindsided the aviation industry. Fuel can account for up to 40% of airlines' operating expenses, forcing them to raise fares and cut unprofitable flights.

Air India said in a statement that it had "temporarily rationalised operations on certain domestic routes" between June and August.

"These adjustments are driven by the sustained impact of high fuel prices on overall operations. Air India will continue to monitor demand and operating conditions closely, with a view to restoring frequencies as conditions stabilise," a spokesperson for the airline added.

Passengers affected by the changes would be offered places on alternative flights, complimentary date changes or full refunds, the spokesperson added.

IndiGo did not immediately respond to an emailed request for comment. The airline operates over 2,200 daily flights, including international.

Air India's cuts follow reductions to its international routes, which have created room for foreign airlines to add more flights to and from India. IndiGo had cut some long-haul flights prior to the war, citing operational constraints and airport congestion.

The reductions also underscore the vulnerability of India's fast-growing aviation market to external shocks, even as carriers are set to receive new jets in the coming years.

Air India recently logged a record annual loss of more than $2 billion, also battered by Pakistan's ban on Indian carriers from its airspace and a strong U.S. dollar. The airline is owned by the Tata Group and Singapore Airlines SIAL.SI.

Updates AirAsia X, Air New Zealand, Cebu Air, Chinese airlines; adds Ryanair.

May 15 (Reuters) - A surge in jet fuel prices from $85-$90 to $150-$200 per barrel amid the U.S.-Israeli war against Iran has blindsided the aviation industry, where fuel accounts for up to a quarter of operating expenses, forcing airlines to raise fares and revise financial outlooks.

Below is a list of how airlines are responding, in alphabetical order:

AEGEAN AIRLINES AGNr.AT

The Greek airline expects suspended Middle East flights and a spike in fuel prices to have a "notable impact" on its first-quarter results.

AIRASIA X AIRX.KL

The Malaysian carrier said it would suspend services on routes between Melbourne and Denpasar and Adelaide and Denpasar from June 18 due to increased fuel prices.

Executives previously said the airline had cut 10% of flights and introduced a surcharge of about 20% on fuel.

AIR CANADA AC.TO

Canada's largest carrier has suspended its full-year guidance due to fuel price volatility.

It had previously announced plans to trim four of its 38 daily flights to New York due to higher fuel prices.

AIR CHINA 601111.SS, CHINA SOUTHERN AIRLINES 600029.SS, REGIONAL CHINESE CARRIERS

Chinese airlines will raise fuel surcharges for domestic flights from May 16, with surcharges for domestic flights of 800 km (500 miles) or less to rise by 30 to 90 yuan ($4 to $13). For longer domestic routes, surcharges will increase by 50 to 170 yuan.

AIR FRANCE-KLM AIRF.PA

The airline group expects a $2.4 billion increase in its fuel bill this year. It downgraded its full-year capacity outlook to an increase of 2% to 4%, having previously guided for 3% to 5% growth.

It earlier announced plans to increase long-haul ticket prices to address surging fuel costs, with cabin fares set to rise by 50 euros ($58) per round trip.

The group's Dutch arm KLM said on April 16 it would cancel 160 flights in Europe in the coming month due to rising fuel costs.

AIR INDIA

The Indian carrier will temporarily cut flights on several international routes between June and August.

Bloomberg News previously reported the airline had discussed furloughing non-technical employees and cutting flight capacity by more than 20% for the next three months.

Air India also said it would revise its fuel surcharge from a flat domestic surcharge to a distance-based grid. It said surcharges on international routes did not compensate for the exponential rise in fuel prices.

AIR NEW ZEALAND AIR.NZ

The New Zealand-based airline forecast its largest pre-tax annual loss in four years and said it would review its capital spending plans and the timing of aircraft deliveries to better align with demand and market conditions.

The carrier has hiked fares and consolidated capacity thrice, having been one of the first to announce broad increases to ticket prices when the conflict broke out. It warned there could be further capacity consolidation if fuel prices stay high.

AIR TRANSAT TRZ.TO

The Canadian airline said it would reduce planned capacity by 6% from May to October this year, with cuts expected on routes to Europe and the Caribbean, and with its service to Cuba remaining suspended until October.

AKASA AIR

India's Akasa Air introduced a fuel surcharge ranging between 199 and 1,300 Indian rupees ($2 to $14) on domestic and international flights.

ALASKA AIR ALK.N

The U.S. airline launched a $500 million debt offering as the sharp rise in fuel prices puts pressure on margins.

The carrier previously withdrew its full-year profit forecast and warned of a steep hit to second-quarter earnings. It has also trimmed capacity in some markets.

AMERICAN AIRLINES AAL.O

The U.S. carrier slashed its 2026 profit forecast, pushing the lower end of expectations to a loss, and said it expected the jet fuel bill to increase by more than $4 billion this year.

It has hiked checked baggage fees by $10 each for the first and second bags and by $150 for the third bag on domestic and short-haul international flights, and trimmed certain benefits for economy passengers.

ANA 9202.T

The Japanese airline said higher fuel prices would lift costs by about 140 billion yen ($883 million) this year, though hedging, fares and cost cuts are expected to limit the impact to around 60 billion yen. It is also considering a domestic fuel surcharge for the financial year starting in April 2027.

ASIANA AIRLINES 020560.KS

The South Korean airline will slash 22 flights between April and July due to the fuel cost increase, Newsis reported.

CATHAY PACIFIC 0293.HK

The Hong Kong airline will lower fuel surcharges for most passenger flights from May 16 as part of an "agile response" to the volatility of jet fuel prices, it said.

CEBU AIR CEB.PS

The Philippines-based airline said it had implemented fare adjustments and surcharges across parts of its network in response to fuel price pressures.

DELTA AIR LINES DAL.N

Delta said it would cut capacity by around 3.5 percentage points from its original plan and raise fees for checked bags in an attempt to offset jet fuel costs, with an increase of $10 on first and second checked bags and a $50 increase on the third.

The U.S. airline pulled all planned capacity growth for the second quarter and forecast profit below Wall Street expectations.

EASYJET EZJ.L

EasyJet warned of a bigger half-year pre-tax loss of 540-560 million pounds ($721-748 million), including 25 million pounds in extra fuel costs in March.

FRONTIER AIRLINES ULCC.O

A group of U.S. budget airlines including Frontier has pitched a $2.5 billion relief plan to the U.S. government, the Wall Street Journal reported. The figure is based on how much more the group expects to pay for jet fuel this year compared to earlier forecasts, the report said.

The carrier has said it is reviewing its full-year forecast as fuel prices have increased significantly since it issued it.

GREATER BAY AIRLINES

The Hong Kong-based company said it would raise fuel surcharges on most routes from April 1, while keeping them unchanged on mainland China and Japan routes.

HONG KONG AIRLINES

The airline said it would raise fuel surcharges by up to 35% from March 12, with the sharpest increase on flights between Hong Kong and the Maldives, Bangladesh and Nepal, where charges would rise to HK$384 ($49) from HK$284.

IAG ICAG.L

British Airways-owner IAG warned its annual profit would be lower than forecast, as soaring jet fuel costs and supply disruptions weigh on earnings more than expected.

It previously said it would raise ticket prices to reflect higher fuel costs, as, despite fuel hedges, it was "not immune" to the broader fallout from fuel cost volatility.

INDIGO INGL.NS

India's biggest airline said it would introduce fuel charges on domestic and international flights from March 14, including a charge of 900 rupees for flights to the Middle East and a charge of 2,300 rupees for flights to Europe.

The South Korean carrier entered an emergency management mode from April, as rising oil prices weigh on costs, a source with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

LATAM AIRLINES LTM.SN

The Chile-based carrier cut its 2026 core earnings forecast after higher fuel prices drove up costs.

LUFTHANSA LHAG.DE

The German airline group said it would face a 1.7 billion euro hit from jet fuel prices in 2026.

ITA Airways, a part of the group, said it would raise ticket prices between 5% and 10% in 2026 to compensate for the rising fuel costs.

In April, the Lufthansa group unveiled a new "Economy Basic" low-cost fare option for short- and medium-haul flights, which will limit free carry-on bags to only a "laptop bag or a small backpack".

It previously removed 20,000 short-haul flights from its schedule through October, saying it was equivalent to about 40,000 metric tons of jet fuel.

PAKISTAN INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES

The carrier said it would raise domestic flight fares by $20 and international fares by up to $100, citing higher fuel surcharges.

QANTAS AIRWAYS QAN.AX

Australia's Qantas said it had delayed a planned A$150 million ($107 million) buyback and was raising its estimated fuel bill for the second half of 2026 to A$3.1-3.3 billion, from a previous A$2.5 billion forecast.

RYANAIR RYA.I

Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary warned the low-cost airline's profit may come under "a bit of pressure" in the fiscal year ending March 2027 if oil prices remain at high levels.

SAS

The Scandinavian airline said it would cancel 1,000 flights in April because of high oil and jet fuel prices, after cancelling a "couple hundred" flights in March.

SPIRIT AIRLINES

The U.S. low-cost carrier shut down abruptly after collapsing under financial pressures, including the sharp rise in fuel costs.

SPRING AIRLINES 601021.SS

The Chinese budget airline said it would raise fuel surcharges on domestic flights from April 5.

SOUTHWEST AIRLINES LUV.N

The U.S. carrier forecast second-quarter profit below market expectations and its CEO warned the fuel spike would be a billion-dollar headwind for the airline in the quarter.

It previously hiked checked baggage fees by $10 for the first and second bags, raising costs to $45 for the first bag and $55 for the second.

TAP

The Portuguese airline said price hikes would partially mitigate the impact of fuel price changes on its revenue.

THAI AIRASIA

The Thai low-cost carrier said it would reduce overall seat capacity by an average of 30% between May and June to mitigate the impact of fuel prices and softening demand.

THAI AIRWAYS THAI.BK

The Thailand-based carrier said it would raise fares by 10% to 15% to address rising fuel costs.

TUI TUI1n.DE

The European airline and tour operator cut its full-year underlying profit outlook and suspended revenue guidance, saying it had incurred about 40 million euros in extra costs due to the war in March, including repatriation efforts and operational disruptions.

TURKISH AIRLINES THYAO.IS, LUFTHANSA LHAG.DE

SunExpress, a joint venture between Turkish Airlines and Lufthansa, said it would impose a temporary fuel surcharge of 10 euros per passenger on routes between Turkey and mainland Europe. The surcharge will apply to bookings made on or after April 1 for departures on or after May 1.

Turkish Airlines said on April 10 it had decided not to distribute any dividend from its 2025 net profit, opting to retain earnings to preserve cash.

T'WAY AIR 091810.KS

The South Korean low-cost carrier said it planned to furlough some of its cabin crew without pay in May and June as part of measures to address the impact of the war.

UNITED AIRLINES UAL.O

The U.S. airline's CEO Scott Kirby said ticket prices may need to rise by as much as 15% to 20% to offset a surge in fuel costs. The company already instated five fare increases late in the first quarter, along with higher baggage fees, which it said had started to offset rising fuel costs.

The carrier also forecast second-quarter and full-year profits below Wall Street estimates and said it expected to recover only 40-50% of the increase in fuel prices through fares and other revenue measures in the second quarter, improving to 70-80% in the third and to as much as 85-100% by the fourth.

VIETJET VJC.HM

The Vietnamese budget airline said it had adjusted flight frequency on selected routes due to potential fuel shortages.

VIETNAM AIRLINES HVN.HM

The carrier plans to cancel 23 flights per week across domestic routes from April, Vietnam's aviation authority said, after the airline requested government assistance to remove an environmental tax on jet fuel.

VIRGIN ATLANTIC

The airline is adding fuel surcharges to fares but will still struggle to return to profitability this year, CEO Corneel Koster told the Financial Times.

VIRGIN AUSTRALIA VGN.AX

Virgin Australia said it expected an increase in fuel costs of around A$30-40 million for the second half of this fiscal year, and a 1% reduction in capacity in the fourth quarter.

VOLOTEA

The Spanish low-cost airline introduced a new pricing policy linking ticket prices to fuel costs, which could potentially add a post-purchase surcharge of up to 14 euros per passenger, per flight.

WESTJET

The Canadian airline has cut seat capacity for June, the Globe and Mail reported. The Canadian Press previously reported that the carrier would add a C$60 ($44) fuel surcharge to some bookings and combine flights as costs soar.

WIZZ AIR WIZZ.L

The low-cost carrier revised its guidance upwards, citing strong forward bookings and swift action to offset soaring fuel prices and flight cancellations by adding capacity on existing and new routes and using promotional fares. It had issued a profit warning at the start of the Iran war.

May 4 (Reuters) - A surge in jet fuel prices from $85-$90 to $150-$200 per barrel amid the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has blindsided the aviation industry, where fuel accounts for up to a quarter of operating expenses, forcing airlines to raise fares and revise their financial outlooks.

Below is a list of how airlines are responding, in alphabetical order:

AEGEAN AIRLINES AGNr.AT

The Greek airline expects suspended Middle East flights and a spike in fuel prices to have a "notable impact" on its first-quarter results.

AIRASIA X AIRX.KL

The Malaysian airline's executives said the company had cut 10% of flights across the group, with a surcharge of about 20% on fuel in general.

AIR CANADA AC.TO

Canada's largest carrier has suspended its full-year guidance due to jet fuel price volatility.

The company had previously announced plans to trim four of its 38 daily flights to New York due to higher fuel prices.

AIR CHINA 601111.SS, CHINA SOUTHERN AIRLINES 600029.SS, CHINA EASTERN AIRLINES 600115.SS

China's 'big three' airlines have lifted surcharges on domestic routes to 60 yuan ($8.78) for flights under 800 km and 120 yuan for those over 800 km, from 10 yuan and 20 yuan, respectively.

AIR FRANCE-KLM AIRF.PA

The airline group said it expected a $2.4 billion increase in its fuel bill this year and downgraded its capacity outlook to an increase of 2% to 4% from 2025. It previously expected an increase of 3% to 5%.

The group previously announced plans to increase long-haul ticket prices to address surging fuel costs, with cabin fares set to rise by 50 euros ($59) per round trip.

The group's Dutch arm KLM said on April 16 it would cancel 160 flights in Europe in the coming month due to rising fuel costs.

AIR INDIA

The Indian carrier said it would revise its fuel surcharge from a flat domestic surcharge to a distance-based grid. It said surcharges on international routes did not compensate for the exponential rise in fuel prices.

AIR NEW ZEALAND AIR.NZ

The airline said on April 7 it would slash flights through May and June and hike fares, having been one of the first to announce broad increases to ticket prices when the conflict broke out. It also suspended its full-year earnings forecast due to fuel market volatility.

AIR TRANSAT TRZ.TO

The Canadian airline said it would reduce planned capacity by 6% from May until October this year, with cuts expected on routes to Europe and the Caribbean and its service to Cuba remaining suspended until October.

AKASA AIR

India's Akasa Air said it was introducing a fuel surcharge ranging between 199 and 1,300 Indian rupees ($2 to $14) on domestic and international flights.

ALASKA AIR ALK.N

The carrier withdrew its full-year profit forecast and warned of a steep hit to second-quarter earnings as the sharp rise in fuel prices puts pressure on margins. It has also trimmed capacity in some markets.

AMERICAN AIRLINES AAL.O

The U.S. carrier slashed its 2026 profit forecast, pushing the lower end of expectations to a loss, and said it expected its jet fuel bill to increase by more than $4 billion this year.

It has hiked checked baggage fees by $10 each for the first and second bags and by $150 for the third bag on domestic and short-haul international flights, and trimmed certain benefits for economy passengers.

ANA 9202.T

The Japanese airline said higher fuel prices would lift costs by about 140 billion yen ($890 million) this year, though hedging, fares and cost cuts are expected to limit the impact to around 60 billion yen. It said it is considering introducing a domestic fuel surcharge in the financial year from April 2027.

ASIANA AIRLINES 020560.KS

The South Korean airline will slash 22 flights between April and July due to the fuel cost increase, Newsis reported.

CEBU AIR CEB.PS

The Philippines-based airline said the sharp rise in fuel prices was a key concern and it would continue to review its pricing and network strategies to mitigate the impact.

DELTA AIR LINES DAL.N

Delta said it would cut capacity by around 3.5 percentage points from its original plan and raise fees for checked bags in an attempt to offset soaring jet fuel costs, with an increase of $10 on first and second checked bags and a $50 increase on the third.

The U.S. airline pulled all planned capacity growth for the current quarter and forecast profit below Wall Street expectations.

EASYJET EZJ.L

EasyJet warned of a bigger half-year pre-tax loss of between 540 million and 560 million pounds ($732 million and $759 million), including 25 million pounds in extra fuel costs in March.

FRONTIER AIRLINES ULCC.O

A group of U.S. budget airlines including Frontier has pitched a $2.5 billion relief plan to the U.S. government, the Wall Street Journal reported. The figure is based on how much more the group expects to pay for jet fuel this year compared to earlier forecasts, the report said.

The carrier has said it is reviewing its full-year forecast as fuel prices have increased significantly since it issued it.

GREATER BAY AIRLINES

The Hong Kong-based company said it would raise fuel surcharges on most routes from April 1, while keeping them unchanged on mainland China and Japan routes.

HONG KONG AIRLINES

The airline said it would raise fuel surcharges by up to 35% from March 12, with the sharpest increase on flights between Hong Kong and the Maldives, Bangladesh and Nepal, where charges would rise to HK$384 from HK$284.

IAG ICAG.L

British Airways-owner IAG said it would raise ticket prices to reflect higher jet fuel costs, as, despite its fuel hedges, it was "not immune" to the broader fallout from fuel cost volatility.

INDIGO INGL.NS

India's biggest airline said it would introduce fuel charges on domestic and international flights from March 14, including a charge of 900 rupees for flights to the Middle East and a charge of 2,300 rupees for flights to Europe.

JETBLUE AIRWAYS JBLU.O

JetBlue said it would slow hiring, cut capacity and hike fares to soften the impact of soaring jet fuel costs, and its CEO Joanna Geraghty said on an earnings call the airline suspended its full-year outlook.

KOREAN AIR

The South Korean carrier will enter emergency management mode from April, as rising oil prices weigh on costs, a source with knowledge of the matter told Reuters.

LUFTHANSA LHAG.DE

The German airline group unveiled a new "Economy Basic" low-cost fare option for short- and medium-haul flights, which will limit free carry-on bags to only a "laptop bag or a small backpack".

The group previously said 20,000 short-haul flights would be removed from its schedule through October, equivalent to about 40,000 metric tons of jet fuel.

PAKISTAN INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES

The carrier said it would raise domestic flight fares by $20 and international fares by up to $100, citing higher fuel surcharges.

QANTAS AIRWAYS QAN.AX

Australia's Qantas said it had delayed a planned A$150 million ($108 million) buyback and was raising its estimated fuel bill for the second half of 2026 to A$3.1 billion-A$3.3 billion, from a previous A$2.5 billion forecast.

SAS

The Scandinavian airline said it would cancel 1,000 flights in April because of high oil and jet fuel prices, after cancelling a "couple hundred" flights in March.

SPIRIT AIRLINES

The U.S. low-cost carrier shut down abruptly after collapsing under financial pressures, including the sharp rise in fuel costs due to the Iran war.

SPRING AIRLINES 601021.SS

The budget Chinese airline said it would raise fuel surcharges on domestic flights from April 5, with details to be announced later.

SOUTHWEST AIRLINES LUV.N

The U.S. carrier forecast second-quarter profit below market expectations and its CEO warned the jet fuel spike would be a billion-dollar headwind for the airline in the quarter.

It had previously hiked checked baggage fees by $10 for the first and second bags, raising costs to $45 for the first bag and $55 for the second.

TAP

The Portuguese airline said its price hikes would partially mitigate the impact of fuel price changes on its revenue.

THAI AIRASIA

The Thai low-cost carrier said it would reduce overall seat capacity by an average of 30% between May and June to mitigate the impact of aviation fuel prices and softening demand.

THAI AIRWAYS THAI.BK

The Thailand-based carrier said it would raise fares by 10% to 15% to address rising fuel costs.

TUI TUI1n.DE

The European airline and tour operator cut its full-year underlying profit outlook and suspended revenue guidance, saying it had incurred about 40 million euros in extra costs due to the war in March, including repatriation efforts and operational disruptions.

TURKISH AIRLINES THYAO.IS, LUFTHANSA LHAG.DE

SunExpress, a joint venture between Turkish Airlines and Lufthansa, said it would impose a temporary fuel surcharge of 10 euros per passenger on routes between Turkey and mainland Europe. The surcharge will apply to bookings made on or after April 1 for departures on or after May 1.

Turkish Airlines said on April 10 it had decided not to distribute any dividend from its 2025 net profit, opting to retain earnings to preserve cash.

T'WAY AIR 091810.KS

The South Korean low-cost carrier said it planned to furlough some of its cabin crew without pay in May and June as part of measures to address the impact of the war.

UNITED AIRLINES UAL.O

The U.S. airline's CEO Scott Kirby said ticket prices may need to rise by as much as 15% to 20% to offset a surge in jet fuel costs. The company already instated five fare increases late in the first quarter, along with higher baggage fees, which it said have started to offset rising fuel costs.

The carrier also forecast second-quarter and full-year profits below Wall Street estimates and said it expected to recover only 40-50% of the increase in fuel prices through fares and other revenue measures in the second quarter, improving to 70-80% in the third and to as much as 85-100% by the fourth.

VIETJET VJC.HM

The Vietnamese budget airline said it had adjusted flight frequency on selected routes due to potential fuel shortages.

VIETNAM AIRLINES HVN.HM

The carrier plans to cancel 23 flights per week across domestic routes from April, Vietnam's aviation authority said, after the airline requested government assistance to remove an environmental tax on jet fuel.

VIRGIN ATLANTIC

The airline is adding fuel surcharges to fares but will still struggle to return to profitability this year, its CEO Corneel Koster told the Financial Times.

VIRGIN AUSTRALIA VGN.AX

Virgin Australia said it expected an increase in jet fuel cost of around A$30 million-A$40 million for the second half of this fiscal year, and a 1% reduction in capacity in the fourth quarter.

VOLOTEA

The Spanish low-cost airline introduced a new pricing policy linking ticket prices to fuel costs, which could potentially add a post-purchase surcharge of up to 14 euros per passenger, per flight.

Updates Easyjet, adds Airline Operators of Nigeria

April 16 (Reuters) - A surge in jet fuel prices driven by the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has upended the global aviation industry, forcing airlines to raise fares and revise their financial outlooks.

Jet fuel prices have soared from $85 to $90 per barrel to $150 to $200 per barrel in recent weeks, a financial hit for an industry where fuel accounts for up to a quarter of operating expenses.

Below is a list of how airlines are responding, in alphabetical order:

AEGEAN AIRLINES AGNr.AT

The Greek airline expects suspended Middle East flights and a spike in fuel prices to have a "notable impact" on its first-quarter results.

AIRASIA X AIRX.KL

The Malaysian airline's executives said the company had cut 10% of flights across the group, with a surcharge of about 20% on fuel in general.

AIR FRANCE-KLM AIRF.PA

The airline group said it planned to increase long-haul ticket prices to address surging fuel costs, with cabin fares set to rise by 50 euros ($58) per round trip.

AIR INDIA

The Indian carrier said it would revise its fuel surcharge from a flat domestic surcharge to a distance-based grid. It said surcharges on international routes did not compensate for the exponential rise in fuel prices.

AIR NEW ZEALAND AIR.NZ

The airline said on April 7 it would slash flights through May and June and hike fares, having been one of the first to announce broad increases to ticket prices when the conflict broke out. It also suspended its full-year earnings forecast due to fuel market volatility.

AKASA AIR

India's Akasa Air said it was introducing a fuel surcharge ranging between 199 and 1,300 Indian rupees ($2 to $14) on domestic and international flights.

ALASKA AIR ALK.N

The U.S. airline said it would increase fees for the first checked bag by $5 and by $10 for the second on its North American flights, as well as for its Hawaiian Airlines unit. It hiked prices for a third checked bag from $50 to $200.

AMERICAN AIRLINES AAL.O

The U.S. carrier said it would hike checked baggage fees by $10 each for the first and second checked bags and by $150 for the third checked bag on domestic and short-haul international flights. It also trimmed certain benefits for economy passengers.

It had earlier said it expected a $400 million increase in first-quarter expenses due to fuel prices.

CATHAY PACIFIC 0293.HK

The Hong Kong airline said it would cut some flight from mid-May until the end of June, cancelling about 2% of its scheduled passenger flights, while its budget airline HK Express was cutting around 6% of flights.

The carrier previously said it would hike its fuel surcharge by 34% across routes from April 1 and review them every two weeks.

CEBU AIR CEB.PS

The Philippines-based airline said the sharp rise in fuel prices was a key concern and it would continue to review its pricing and network strategies to mitigate the impact.

CHINA EASTERN AIRLINES 600115.SS

The airline said it would raise fuel surcharges for domestic flights from April 5, with flights of 800km and below hit with a 60 yuan ($9) surcharge and a 120 yuan surcharge for flights over 800km.

DELTA AIR LINES DAL.N

Delta said it would cut capacity by around 3.5 percentage points from its original plan and raise fees for checked bags in an attempt to offset soaring jet fuel costs, with an increase of $10 on first and second checked bags and a $50 increase on the third.

The U.S. airline pulled all planned capacity growth for the current quarter and forecast profit below Wall Street expectations. Delta CEO said it would hold off on updating the full-year outlook given uncertainty over how long the fuel price spike would last.

EASYJET EZJ.L

EasyJet warned of a bigger half-year pre-tax loss of between 540 million and 560 million pounds ($731 million and $758 million), including 25 million pounds in extra fuel costs in March.

CEO Kenton Jarvis previously said European consumers should expect higher ticket prices towards the end of summer, when existing fuel hedges come to an end.

FRONTIER AIRLINES ULCC.O

The U.S. airline is reviewing its full-year forecast as fuel prices have increased significantly since it issued the outlook.

GREATER BAY AIRLINES

The Hong Kong-based company said it would raise fuel surcharges on most routes from April 1, while keeping them unchanged on mainland China and Japan routes.

Its surcharge for flights between Hong Kong and the Philippines will more than double, the carrier said.

HONG KONG AIRLINES

The airline said it would raise fuel surcharges by up to 35% from March 12, with the sharpest increase on flights between Hong Kong and the Maldives, Bangladesh and Nepal, where charges would rise to HK$384 ($49) from HK$284.

IAG ICAG.L

British Airways-owner IAG said in March it did not plan to increase ticket prices immediately, as it had hedged much of its fuel for the short- to medium-term.

INDIGO INGL.NS

India's biggest airline said it would introduce fuel charges on domestic and international flights from March 14, including a charge of 900 rupees for flights to the Middle East and a charge of 2,300 rupees for flights to Europe.

The company is also lobbying the Indian government to cut fuel taxes, sources told Reuters.

JETBLUE AIRWAYS JBLU.O

The U.S.-based low-cost carrier said it was increasing fees for optional services such as checked baggage as it experiences "rising operating costs". Baggage prices will rise by either $4 or $9, it said.

KOREAN AIR

The South Korean carrier will enter emergency management mode from April, as rising oil prices weigh on costs, a source with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. The airline plans to implement phased response measures based on oil price levels, and step up company-wide cost efficiency to offset surging fuel costs.

AIRLINE OPERATORS OF NIGERIA

The Nigerian industry body warned that Nigerian airlines would suspend all flight operations from April 20 unless fuel prices are reduced, as it accused the country's fuel industry association of artificially raising prices in a letter seen by Reuters.

PAKISTAN INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES

The carrier said it would raise domestic flight fares by $20 and international fares by up to $100, citing higher fuel surcharges.

QANTAS AIRWAYS QAN.AX

Australia's Qantas said it had delayed a planned A$150 million ($106 million) buyback and was raising its estimated fuel bill for the second half of 2026 to A$3.1 billion-A$3.3 billion, from a previous A$2.5 billion forecast.

SAS

The Scandinavian airline said it would cancel 1,000 flights in April because of high oil and jet fuel prices, after cancelling a "couple hundred" flights in March.

SAS, which had already increased flight prices, said that even if it tried to absorb the rising fuel costs, the price surge would still be a blow to the aviation industry.

SPRING AIRLINES 601021.SS

The budget Chinese airline said it would raise fuel surcharges on domestic flights from April 5, with details to be announced later.

SOUTHWEST AIRLINES LUV.N

The American carrier said it would hike checked baggage fees by $10 for the first and second bags, raising costs to $45 for the first bag and $55 for the second.

TAP

The Portuguese airline said its price hikes would partially mitigate the impact of fuel price changes on its revenue.

THAI AIRWAYS THAI.BK

The Thailand-based carrier said it would raise fares by 10% to 15% to address rising fuel costs.

TURKISH AIRLINES THYAO.IS, LUFTHANSA LHAG.DE

SunExpress, a joint venture between Turkish Airlines and Lufthansa, said it would impose a temporary fuel surcharge of 10 euros per passenger from May 1 on routes between Turkey and Europe. The surcharge will apply to bookings made on or after April 1 for departures on or after May 1.

Turkish Airlines said on April 10 it had decided not to distribute any dividend from its 2025 net profit, opting to retain earnings to preserve cash.

T'WAY AIR 091810.KS

The South Korean low-cost carrier said it planned to furlough some of its cabin crew without pay in May and June as part of measures to address the impact of the war.

UNITED AIRLINES UAL.O

The U.S. airline is cutting unprofitable flights over the next two quarters as it prepares for oil prices to remain above $100 until the end of 2027, CEO Scott Kirby said.

United has been able to raise fares without materially hurting bookings in response to the rapid increase in oil and jet fuel prices, Chief Commercial Officer Andrew Nocella said.

It is also increasing first and second checked bag fees by $10 for customers travelling in the U.S., Mexico and Canada and Latin America, it said in an e-mailed statement to Reuters.

VIETJET VJC.HM

The Vietnamese budget airline said it had adjusted flight frequency on selected routes due to potential fuel shortages.

VIETNAM AIRLINES HVN.HM

The carrier plans to cancel 23 flights per week across domestic routes from April, Vietnam's aviation authority said, after the airline requested government assistance to remove an environmental tax on jet fuel.

VIRGIN ATLANTIC

The airline is adding fuel surcharges to fares but will still struggle to return to profitability this year, its CEO Corneel Koster told the Financial Times.

VIRGIN AUSTRALIA VGN.AX

Virgin Australia said it expected an increase in jet fuel cost of around A$30 million-A$40 million for the second half of this fiscal year, and a 1% reduction in capacity in the fourth quarter.

The airline previously said it was adjusting fares to reflect rising cost pressures.

WESTJET

The Canadian airline will add a C$60 ($43) fuel surcharge to some bookings and combine flights as costs soar, the Canadian Press reported.

Updates Cathay Pacific, adds Qantas, Virgin Atlantic

April 13 (Reuters) - A surge in jet fuel prices driven by the U.S.-Israeli war on Iran has upended the global aviation industry, forcing airlines to raise fares and revise financial outlooks.

Jet fuel prices have soared from $85 to $90 per barrel to $150 to $200 per barrel in recent weeks, a financial hit for an industry where fuel accounts for up to a quarter of operating expenses.

Below is a list of how airlines are responding, in alphabetical order:

AEGEAN AIRLINES AGNr.AT

The Greek airline expects suspended Middle East flights and a spike in fuel prices to have a "notable impact" on its first-quarter results.

AIRASIA X AIRX.KL

The Malaysian airline's executives said the company had cut 10% of flights across the group, with a surcharge of about 20% on fuel in general.

AIR FRANCE-KLM AIRF.PA

The airline group said it planned to increase long-haul ticket prices to address surging fuel costs, with cabin fares set to rise by 50 euros ($58) per round trip.

AIR INDIA

The Indian flag carrier said it would revise its fuel surcharge from a flat domestic surcharge to a distance-based grid. It said surcharges on international routes did not compensate for the exponential rise in jet fuel prices.

AIR NEW ZEALAND AIR.NZ

The airline said on April 7 it would slash flights through May and June and hike fares, having been one of the first to announce broad increases to ticket prices when the conflict broke out. It also suspended its full-year earnings forecast due to fuel market volatility.

AKASA AIR

India's Akasa Air said it was introducing a fuel surcharge ranging between 199 and 1,300 Indian rupees ($2 to $14) on domestic and international flights.

ALASKA AIR ALK.N

The U.S. airline said it would increase fees for the first checked bag by $5 and by $10 for the second on its North American flights, as well as for its Hawaiian Airlines unit. It hiked prices for a third checked bag from $50 to $200.

AMERICAN AIRLINES AAL.O

The U.S. carrier said it would hike checked baggage fees by $10 each for the first and second checked bags and by $150 for the third checked bag on domestic and short-haul international flights. The airline also trimmed certain benefits for economy passengers.

It had earlier said it expected a $400 million increase in first-quarter expenses due to the fuel prices.

CATHAY PACIFIC 0293.HK

The Hong Kong airline said it would cut some flight from mid-May until the end of June, cancelling about 2% of its scheduled passenger flights, while its budget airline HK Express is cutting around 6% of flights. The carrier previously said it would hike its fuel surcharge by 34% across routes from April 1 and review them every two weeks.

CEBU AIR CEB.PS

The Philippines-based airline said the sharp rise in fuel prices was a key concern and it would continue to review its pricing and network strategies to mitigate the impact.

CHINA EASTERN AIRLINES 600115.SS

The airline said it would raise fuel surcharges for domestic flights from April 5, with flights of 800km and below hit with a 60 yuan ($9) surcharge and a 120 yuan surcharge for flights over 800km.

DELTA AIR LINES DAL.N

Delta said it would cut capacity by around 3.5 percentage points from its original plan and raise fees for checked bags in an attempt to offset soaring jet fuel costs, with an increase of $10 on the price of first and second checked bags and a $50 increase on the third checked bag.

The U.S. airline pulled all planned capacity growth for the current quarter and forecast profit below Wall Street expectations. Delta CEO said it would hold off on updating the full-year outlook given uncertainty over how long the fuel price spike would last.

EASYJET EZJ.L

EasyJet CEO Kenton Jarvis said European consumers should expect higher ticket prices towards the end of summer, when existing fuel hedges come to an end.

FRONTIER AIRLINES ULCC.O

The U.S. airline is reviewing its full-year forecast as fuel prices have increased significantly since it issued the outlook.

GREATER BAY AIRLINES

The Hong Kong-based company said it would raise fuel surcharges on most routes from April 1, while keeping them unchanged on mainland China and Japan routes.

Its surcharge for flights between Hong Kong and the Philippines will more than double, the carrier said.

HONG KONG AIRLINES

The airline said it would raise fuel surcharges by up to 35% from March 12, with the sharpest increase on flights between Hong Kong and the Maldives, Bangladesh and Nepal, where charges would rise to HK$384 ($49) from HK$284.

IAG ICAG.L

British Airways-owner IAG said on March 10 it did not plan to increase ticket prices immediately, as it has hedged much of its fuel for the short- to medium-term.

INDIGO INGL.NS

India's biggest airline said it would introduce fuel charges on domestic and international flights from March 14, including a charge of 900 rupees for flights to the Middle East and a charge of 2,300 rupees for flights to Europe.

The company is also lobbying the Indian government to cut fuel taxes, sources told Reuters.

JETBLUE AIRWAYS JBLU.O

The U.S.-based low-cost carrier said it was increasing fees for optional services such as checked baggage as it experiences "rising operating costs". Baggage prices will rise by either $4 or $9, it said.

KOREAN AIR

The South Korean flag carrier will enter emergency management mode from April, as rising oil prices weigh on costs, a source with knowledge of the matter told Reuters. The airline plans to implement phased response measures based on oil price levels, and step up company-wide cost efficiency to offset surging fuel costs.

PAKISTAN INTERNATIONAL AIRLINES

The carrier said it would raise domestic flight fares by $20 and international fares by up to $100, citing higher fuel surcharges.

QANTAS AIRWAYS QAN.AX

Australia's Qantas said it had delayed a planned A$150 million ($106 million) buyback and was raising its estimated fuel bill for the second half of 2026 to A$3.1 billion-A$3.3 billion, from a previous A$2.5 billion forecast.

SAS

The Scandinavian airline said it would cancel 1,000 flights in April because of high oil and jet fuel prices, after cancelling a "couple hundred" flights in March.

SAS, which had already increased flight prices, said that even if it tried to absorb the rising fuel costs, the price surge would still be a blow to the aviation industry.

SPRING AIRLINES 601021.SS

The budget Chinese airline said it would raise fuel surcharges on domestic flights from April 5, with details to be announced later.

SOUTHWEST AIRLINES LUV.N

The American carrier said it would hike checked baggage fees by $10 for the first and second bags, raising costs to $45 for the first bag and $55 for the second.

TAP

The Portuguese airline said its price hikes would partially mitigate the impact of fuel price changes on its revenue.

THAI AIRWAYS THAI.BK

The Thailand-based carrier said it would raise fares by 10% to 15% to address rising fuel costs.

TURKISH AIRLINES THYAO.IS, LUFTHANSA LHAG.DE

SunExpress, a joint venture between Turkish Airlines and Lufthansa, said it would impose a temporary fuel surcharge of 10 euros per passenger from May 1 on routes between Turkey and Europe. The surcharge will apply to bookings made on or after April 1 for departures on or after May 1.

Turkish Airlines said on April 10 it had decided not to distribute any dividend from its 2025 net profit, opting to retain earnings to preserve cash.

T'WAY AIR 091810.KS

The South Korean low-cost carrier said on April 13 it plans to furlough some of its cabin crew without pay in May and June as part of its measures to address the impact of the war in the Middle East.

UNITED AIRLINES UAL.O

The U.S. airline is cutting unprofitable flights over the next two quarters as it prepares for oil prices to remain above $100 until the end of 2027, CEO Scott Kirby said.

United has been able to raise fares without materially hurting bookings in response to the rapid increase in oil and jet fuel prices, Chief Commercial Officer Andrew Nocella said.

The carrier is also increasing first and second checked bag fees by $10 for customers travelling in the U.S., Mexico and Canada and Latin America, it said in an e-mailed statement to Reuters.

VIETJET VJC.HM

The Vietnamese budget airline said it had adjusted flight frequency on selected routes due to potential fuel shortages.

VIETNAM AIRLINES HVN.HM

The carrier plans to cancel 23 flights per week across domestic routes from April, Vietnam's aviation authority said, after the airline requested government assistance to remove an environmental tax on jet fuel.

VIRGIN ATLANTIC

The airline is adding fuel surcharges to fares but will still struggle to return to profitability this year, its CEO Corneel Koster told the Financial Times.

VIRGIN AUSTRALIA VGN.AX

Virgin Australia said it was adjusting fares to reflect rising cost pressures across the aviation sector, which it said were being significantly exacerbated by the situation in the Middle East.

WESTJET

The Canadian airline will add a C$60 ($43) fuel surcharge to some bookings and combine flights as costs soar, the Canadian Press reported.
