Qantas fuel surcharge

Qantas has threatened to slug its passengers with higher ticket prices, despite doubling its profit and paying less for fuel.
The airline says it is concerned about soaring oil prices and may again raise its fuel surcharge on tickets.Qantas increased the fuel surcharge on international flights barely a month ago.
Tickets to the US, India and Africa attracted a $20 surcharge, flights to Asia and the Pacific climbed by $15.
The higher costs come even though the company's fuel bill dropped by more than $200 million over the past year, as it benefits from the higher Australian dollar.
