Cathay Pacific Fuel Surcharge Hike: How to Avoid Higher Fares

March 12, 2026

We would like to inform you that, effective 17 March 2026 (HKT), Cathay Pacific will implement an increase in the fuel surcharge. This adjustment will be significant.

We strongly encourage you to take advantage of the time window prior to the above cutoff to complete ticketing. Please note that no exceptions will be accepted after the cutoff time, and we will not be able to honor any fuel surcharge adjustment requests once the increase takes effect

Thank you for your continued support and for choosing Cathay Pacific.
