Lufthansa lowers fuel surcharge

      Lufthansa Cargo said it will lower its fuel surcharge from 0.50 euro (59 cents) to 0.45 euro (53 cents) per kilogram, effective Dec. 5, as the price for jet fuel continues to recede from record highs.

   The airline has lowered its fuel surcharge index three times this month. Many airlines use the Lufthansa index as a benchmark and have reduced surcharges as well.
