Carriers Pull Back on $5 Increase

Posted on Sunday 20 May 2007

On Saturday American, Delta and Northwest rolled back a large portion of their most recent $5 one-way increase. This move followed United’s roll back on Friday.

At this point only Continental is still holding firm with the $5 one-way fuel surcharge it put into place Monday night (May 14).

The chart below shows the number of increases still in effect from the three recent increases (5/3, 5/10 & 5/14) for the top 1,200 markets in the US & CA by advance purchase bucket.
