American Airlines raises fuel surcharge

   American Airlines Cargo division is increasing its fuel surcharge from 35 cents per kilogram to 40 cents per kilogram for most U.S.-origin international shipments and from 14 cents per pound to 16 cents per pound for U.S. domestic shipments, effective April 6.
