International crude oil prices continue to fluctuate at a high level, and the cost pressure on airlines is being transmitted to clients at an accelerated pace. Recently, many domestic airlines have intensively raised fuel surcharges for international routes. The increase is generally over 50%, and some routes have even doubled. Although the domestic market is still in the traditional low season after the holiday season, as expectations of rising fuel costs continue to strengthen, many consumers have begun to book travel tickets two weeks or even one month in advance in an attempt to lock in the current relatively low travel costs.
