JAL's April–June revenue rose 11.2% to a record, but net profit fell 80.2% as fuel and yen-related costs surged. JAL and ANA doubled international fuel surcharges from 1 May, with a further rise for tickets bought in July–August. For a Thai business, this signals that airfares to Japan are likely to stay higher, so factor fuel surcharges into travel and freight budgets. A stronger yen since early August may ease costs later, but JAL's full-year profit forecast is still down 20.1%.
