Chinese airlines will raise domestic fuel surcharges effective May 16, 2026, breaking the usual 5th‑of‑month adjustment rule.
For flights ≤800 km, surcharge rises 30 yuan to 90 yuan; longer routes add 50 yuan, reaching 170 yuan.
The hikes follow six surcharge adjustments in April as jet fuel prices surged amid the U.S.–Israeli war on Iran.
