Mumbai: Jet Airways on Friday said it will raise fares by 10-15 per cent as early as this month to offset rising jet fuel pricesm a decision that possibly stems from confidence about returning passenger demand.
Fares are set to rise by 10-15 per cent in April-June over January-March period, Jet Airways Vice-President (revenue management) Shiv Kumar said.
Aviation turbine fuel prices have been on the rise on the back of crude nearly doubling from last year's level to trade at $ 86 a barrell level now.
Kumar, who said crude prices are a concern, added that volumes were seen rising, particularly on domestic routes, which may be influencing the pricing decision.
