■ Tips for residents and travelers
· Fuel surcharges are based on the ticketing date, so they will not be additionally charged on tickets you have already purchased.
· Even on the same Southeast Asian route, the amounts vary by airline, so make sure to check the actual fuel surcharge in the "Taxes and Fees" section right before payment.
· For round trips, the surcharge is applied twice. A Korean Air Manila round trip will be approximately 232,400 won.
