Dubai-based Emirates airline has decided to remove fuel surcharge on all tickets due to the recent fall in oil prices.

Tim Clark, president of the airline, said in a statement: “In line with the recent decrease in fuel prices, Emirates has removed its fuel surcharge on all tickets.

“The removal of this surcharge reflects our long-standing commitment to our customers. We promised our customers from the outset that we would eliminate the surcharge as soon as it was commercially viable and this has now been done. We continue to closely monitor the situation,” he said.
