Aer Lingus Cargo has developed a Fuel Surcharge Index. Based on aggregate Jet Kerosene prices from five global locations, it monitors price fluctuations on a weekly basis. As the index has dropped below level 119 for more than fourteen days, it has triggered a decrease of our Fuel surcharge.

• The surcharge is based on actual weight.
