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.

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.

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

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.

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

TAP

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

THAI AIRWAYS THAI.BK

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.

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.

Adds Air Canada

April 17 (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 CANADA AC.TO

Canada's largest carrier plans to trim four of its 38 daily flights to New York due to higher fuel prices. The four flights to JFK International Airport will be cut from June 1 to October 25, 2026.

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.

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.

AIRLINE OPERATORS OF NIGERIA

The Nigerian industry body warned that Nigerian airlines would suspend all flight operations undefined 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.

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.

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's 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

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.

The airline group said it would ground 27 planes servicing its short-haul CityLine subsidiary earlier than planned, citing jet fuel prices and costs from industrial action.

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.

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.

By Abhijith Ganapavaram and Aditya Kalra

NEW DELHI, April 10 (Reuters) - Dubai has restricted foreign airlines to just one daily flight to its airports until May 31 due to the Iran crisis, igniting revenue loss fears among Indian carriers that had planned more flights than airlines from any other country, letters show.

The Federation of Indian Airlines (FIA), which represents top carriers IndiGo INGL.NS, Air India and SpiceJet SPJT.BO, has asked India to push Dubai authorities to lift the curbs and, failing that, to consider reciprocal measures on Dubai carriers including Emirates and flydubai, according to a letter it sent to the Indian government on March 31.

Indian carriers are already under financial pressure from higher fuel prices and longer routings to Western destinations because they have been banned from using Pakistani airspace since last year following military tensions between the two neighbours.

In a private email to airlines on March 27, seen by Reuters, Dubai Airports said carriers would be allowed one round trip per day to Dubai International Airport (DXB), normally the world's busiest international travel hub, and the smaller Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) during the summer season between April 20 and May 31, extending restrictions implemented after the war began.

"Carriers continue to be limited to one rotation per day, until capacity allows more to be facilitated ... Additional slots will be allocated if capacity is available," it said.

The FIA told the Indian government the curbs were not being applied to Dubai's airlines such as Emirates and flydubai, creating an uneven playing field that could lead to "substantial" revenue losses.

Dubai Airports and Dubai's media office did not respond to repeated requests for comment. Flydubai said its flight schedules were approved by the relevant authorities. Emirates did not respond to a request for comment.

The measures come after Emirates and other Gulf airlines have long complained about India's bilateral air service agreements that cap the number of seats that can be deployed between countries. Indian authorities have said such pacts protect Indian airlines in the cutthroat market.

INDIAN CARRIERS HARDEST HIT BY CAPS

India was the largest source of passengers for DXB in 2025, with 11.9 million travellers passing through the hub.

The Dubai caps will hit Indian airlines the hardest, according to April and May schedules data from Cirium.

Air India and its budget carrier Air India Express have scheduled more than 750 flights into DXB in that period. IndiGo has 481, followed by Saudia and Gulf Air, which planned for 480 and 404, respectively. India's SpiceJet had planned 61.

The one-flight-per-day cap would mean 30 or 31 per month for each foreign airline, versus the hundreds of daily flights being flown by Emirates and flydubai according to Flightradar24 data.

IndiGo told Reuters in a statement that the Middle East crisis and the new Dubai extended restrictions "significantly constrained" its operations as it had an approved summer schedule of 15 daily flights from India to Dubai.

"As a result, a significant portion of IndiGo’s capacity and aircraft time is currently underutilized," IndiGo said in its first comments on the crisis.

Air India, SpiceJet SPJT.BO and Indian authorities did not respond to requests for comment.

Other major airlines such as Lufthansa LHAG.DE, Singapore Airlines SIAL.SI, and British Airways had far fewer flights to Dubai than Indian carriers before the crisis began and have cancelled all flights to the city until at least May 31.

They are instead adding more non-stop Asia-Europe flights to take advantage of strong passenger demand that has pushed up prices.

Rewrites with Air India confirming CEO resignation

By Abhijith Ganapavaram

NEW DELHI, April 7 (Reuters) - Air India said on Tuesday that CEO Campbell Wilson had resigned after nearly four years in the role, as the carrier grapples with persistent losses and heightened regulatory scrutiny following a crash last year that killed 260 people.

Wilson's resignation comes just days after its bigger domestic rival, IndiGo INGL.NS, tapped aviation veteran Willie Walsh as its next CEO.

The country's two largest carriers are under pressure from an industry crisis stemming from the Middle East conflict, compounded by domestic operational challenges.

Reuters reported in January that Air India's board was scouting for a new CEO to replace Wilson, a former Singapore Airlines SIAL.SI executive brought in to steer the Indian carrier's turnaround in 2022 after years of decline under government ownership.

Wilson had conveyed to Air India chairman N. Chandrasekaran in 2024 his intention to step down this year, the airline said in a statement, adding that the New Zealander will remain in the role until his successor is in place.

Air India's board has constituted a committee that will find Wilson's successor in the coming months, the statement said. His tenure was due to end in 2027.

"It is also worth acknowledging the numerous external challenges navigated by the Air India team, including prolonged post-COVID supply chain constraints that have impacted delivery of new aircraft and retrofit programs as well as major geopolitical and other headwinds," said Chandrasekaran, who is also chairman of the carrier's majority stakeholder, the Tata Group.

Singapore Airlines SIAL.SI is another major shareholder, owning about 25%.

'TOUGH CIRCUMSTANCES'

Since taking the helm at India's No. 2 carrier, Wilson oversaw an overhaul of the engineering department and the refurbishment of planes amid supply chain disruptions.

"Over the last four years, Campbell did a good job in very tough circumstances," said Brendan Sobie, a Singapore-based independent aviation analyst.

"Finding the right candidate to complete (Air India's) transformation will not be easy and Tata will particularly feel the pressure to get this right following IndiGo's recent appointment of Willie Walsh," he said.

Air India has been reprimanded by regulators for safety lapses over the past year, ​including flying an aircraft eight times without an airworthiness certificate and running planes without checking emergency equipment.

In December, Air India admitted there was a "need for urgent improvements in process discipline, communication, and compliance culture," Reuters reported.

Air India has a fleet of 191 planes and has placed orders for more than 500 aircraft.

It has lost money since being bought by Tata Group in 2022, with the financial pressure worsening since Pakistan banned Indian carriers from its airspace last year.

Air India and its low-cost carrier Air India Express reported a combined loss of 98.08 billion rupees ($1.05 billion) in the 2024-2025 financial year.

By Ujjaini Dutta

BENGALURU, April 1 (Reuters Breakingviews) - India's largest airline is swapping one international CEO for another. Just weeks after erstwhile KLM boss Pieter Elbers quit following mass flight cancellations in December, IndiGo INGL.NS on Tuesday revealed that Willie Walsh will jump into the corporate pilot seat in August. The former Aer Lingus and British Airways and International Airlines Group boss will bring extra lift to the under-fire $16 billion IndiGo. A successful flight path would take two routes.

The 64-year-old pilot-turned-airline-boss brought Aer Lingus back to profitability with cost cuts. Following a similar playbook at British Airways earned him the nickname ‘Slasher’ Walsh. He then oversaw its merger with Spain's Iberia, as well as smaller acquisitions, to build one of Europe’s largest airline groups, IAG, before leaving in 2020. He has run the International Air Transport Association since 2021.

That combined experience makes Walsh a neat fit for IndiGo. It had already expanded rapidly overseas under Elbers and has added business class offerings to tap into the premium travel market. But it plans to do even more: the airline has the largest order book of about 1000 aircraft to be delivered within a decade. Walsh can help guide the company through any of the resulting turbulence.

There's plenty of that still to deal with domestically. Just four months ago the airline, which provides some 65% of India’s air travel, cancelled over 4,500 flights after it neglected to plan for tighter pilot rest rules. As a result, revenue grew just 6.1% to 234.7 billion Indian rupees ($2.50 billion) in the quarter to the end of December 2025, half the rate of the same period in 2024. Profit plunged 78%. Meanwhile, the Iran war has forced IndiGo to cancel many of its Middle East routes, which account for up to 20% of its top line and where India's international passengers fly to the most, according to brokerage Motilal Oswal. Higher jet fuel prices and per-flight costs due to rerouting Europe-bound flights is adding to the pressure.

There's also much to appeal to Walsh, beyond overcoming current challenges. India's aviation market is growing fast, with the number of domestic passengers expected to nearly double from 165 million people last year by 2030. It helps that the pay is decent, too. Elbers' overall compensation doubled in the financial year to the end of March last year to $4.6 million - not far shy of the $6.2 million Walsh's replacement at IAG, Luis Gallego, received in 2024.

Granted, Walsh has his work cut out. But the 8% jump in IndiGo's share price on Wednesday suggests investors are expecting a smoother ride.

Updates Cathay Pacific, adds Korean Air

March 30 (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:

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

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 ($57) per round trip.

AIR NEW ZEALAND AIR.NZ

The airline was one of the first to announce broad increases to ticket prices on March 10. 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.

AMERICAN AIRLINES AAL.O

CATHAY PACIFIC 0293.HK

The Hong Kong airline said it would hike its fuel surcharge by 34% across routes from April 1 and review them every two weeks. The carrier's CEO said it would maintain flight capacity despite the high fuel prices, but that its 10% passenger capacity growth plan could change if demand declines due to high fuel prices.

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.

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.

By Rushil Dutta, Sameer Manekar and Yadarisa Shabong

March 30 (Reuters) - Global airlines have begun to hike fares and cut capacity to cope with the sudden surge in the oil price, but the industry's ability to remain profitable may depend on whether consumers pull back on flying as gasoline costs threaten household budgets.

Before the U.S.-Israeli conflict with Iran began last month, the airline industry had forecast record profits of $41 billion in 2026, but a doubling in jet fuel prices has placed that at risk and forced carriers to rethink their networks and strategies.

Carriers ranging from United Airlines UAL.O to Air New Zealand AIR.NZ and Scandinavia's SAS have announced capacity cuts and fare hikes, while others have imposed fuel surcharges.

"Airlines face an existential challenge," said Rigas Doganis, who once headed Greece's former national carrier, Olympic Airways and served as a director of Britain's easyJet EZJ.L.

"They will need to cut fares to stimulate weakening demand while higher fuel costs will be pushing them to increase fares. A perfect storm," said Doganis, who now chairs London-based consultancy firm Airline Management Group.

RECORD PASSENGER TRAFFIC

Last year, the industry reported record global passenger traffic that rebounded to about 9% above pre-pandemic levels even in the face of persistent supply-chain challenges that affected deliveries of new planes.

Record post-pandemic demand for travel and persistent supply-chain challenges had constrained capacity growth and given airlines significant pricing power as they filled more seats on each plane.

But the scale of the increases needed to make up for the jet fuel price surge is huge at a time when consumers are under pressure from higher gasoline prices that could curb discretionary spending.

"The only way to get prices up is to reduce capacity," said Barclays' head of European transport equity research Andrew Lobbenberg. "That is what I would expect to see happen this time, and it's what we saw in the previous occasions when we had other crises; people just have to start trimming capacity."

HIGHER TICKET PRICES

United Airlines CEO Scott Kirby told ABC News last week that fares would need to rise 20% for the airline to cover the higher fuel costs.

Hong Kong's Cathay Pacific Airways 0293.HK has lifted fuel surcharges twice in the last month, and from Wednesday a return trip from Sydney to London will attract an $800 fuel surcharge. Before the Iran conflict, a normal round-trip economy-class fare on the route was roughly A$2,000 ($1,369.60).

Low-cost carriers could struggle the most given their passengers are more price-sensitive than the corporate customers and wealthy consumers who have been increasingly targeted by premium rivals like Delta Air Lines DAL.N and United Airlines, analysts say.

"I think for the more price-sensitive travellers, even the short-haul flying trip gets downgraded, potentially to rail or to bus or other alternatives," said Nathan Gee, Bank of America's head of Asia-Pacific transport research.

OIL SHOCKS

The Middle East conflict is the fourth oil shock for the airline industry since the turn of the century, though the first in which carriers like Vietnam Airlines HVN.HM have expressed concern about securing physical supplies of fuel due to the Strait of Hormuz closure.

There was one in 2007-2008 before the global financial crisis dented demand, another after the Arab Spring around 2011, and a third after the Russia-Ukraine war broke out in 2022.

A string of mergers between 2008 and 2014 like Delta-Northwest and American Airlines-US Airways AAL.O reduced eight major U.S. airlines to four and brought on the era of tighter capacity control, while low-cost carriers such as Ryanair RYA.I and India's IndiGo INGL.NS leaned on single-aircraft fleets and fast turnarounds to keep unit costs low.

Replacing older, thirstier planes with more fuel-efficient models is an obvious way for carriers to reduce costs, but a severe supply-chain shortage in the wake of the pandemic and issues with new-generation engines have delayed deliveries.

And while U.S. ultra-low-cost carriers have some of the newest, most fuel-efficient planes in the industry, if travel demand falters, paying for the new planes could become a barrier to profit.

Dan Taylor, head of consulting at aviation advisory firm IBA, said the current oil shock was expected to widen the gap between financially strong and weaker airlines.

"Carriers with robust balance sheets, strong pricing power, and reliable access to capital are better positioned to absorb ongoing pressures," he said on the firm's website. "In contrast, airlines with low profitability and limited funding options may face increasing financial stress."
