Filipino travelers can expect lower airfares in the second half of June after the Civil Aeronautics Board reduced the fuel surcharge level from 13 to 12 due to easing jet fuel prices.
The adjustment will lower the additional charges airlines can impose on domestic and international flights.
Despite the fare relief, airlines continue to face financial pressure from high fuel costs and the weakening peso.
The International Air Transport Association expects profits of Asian carriers to decline this year as operating expenses rise.
Philippine Airlines has already felt the impact, with lower earnings and losses reported in the first quarter.
