受伊朗持续冲突推高航空燃油价格影响,美国航空已加入临时削减航线的航司行列。
该航空公司周三向哥伦比亚广播公司新闻表示,已调整8月和9月“部分航线”的航班计划。美国航空发言人表示,此次调整是为应对高企的燃油成本,受影响航线不会被永久取消。
“作为此次调整的一部分,美国航空不会无限期暂停任何航线,”该发言人在一份声明中说道。临时停飞的受影响航线如下:
- 洛杉矶至克利夫兰
- 洛杉矶至哥伦布
- 洛杉矶至匹兹堡
- 洛杉矶至华盛顿杜勒斯
- 夏洛特至安大略
- 夏洛特至萨克拉门托
行业分析师表示,航空燃油成本约占航空公司总成本的25%至30%。伊朗持续冲突导致全球石油供应收紧,推高了各航司的运营成本。部分航空公司已通过提高票价或在机票价格中加收燃油附加费来应对,同时暂停无利可图的航线。
美国航空表示,将为持有受影响航线机票的乘客提供便利,可选择改签其他航班或申请全额退款。
并非只有该航司在试图抵消航空燃油成本上涨带来的影响。达美航空以“全球形势不断变化”为由上调了行李托运费用。欧洲航空公司荷兰皇家航空和汉莎航空也宣布因航空燃油成本上涨而削减航线。

American Airlines has joined the list of carriers temporarily cutting routes as the ongoing war in Iran drives up jet fuel costs.
The airline told CBS News on Wednesday that it has adjusted schedules for “select routes” in August and September. An American Airlines spokesperson said the changes are in response to elevated fuel costs and that the affected routes will not be permanently cut.
“American is not suspending any routes indefinitely as part of this adjustment,” the spokesperson said in a statement. The affected routes being temporarily cut are:
- Los Angeles to Cleveland
- Los Angeles to Columbus
- Los Angeles to Pittsburgh
- Los Angeles to Washington Dulles
- Charlotte to Ontario
- Charlotte to Sacramento
Jet fuel accounts for roughly 25% to 30% of an airline’s overall costs, according to industry analysts. The ongoing Iran war has choked global oil supplies, driving up carriers’ operating costs. In some cases, airlines have raised fares or tacked on jet fuel surcharges to ticket prices, while also suspending unprofitable routes.
American Airlines said it will accommodate customers with tickets for flights on the affected routes, either by rebooking them on a different flight or offering a refund.
The carrier isn’t alone in looking to offset rising jet fuel costs. Delta Airlines raised its baggage fees, citing “evolving global conditions.” European airlines KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and Lufthansa have also announced route cuts in response to rising jet fuel costs.
