The net increase in fuel expenses supported by AF was therefore 74 million euros for the quarter.

Since AF also offered 4.9 % more ASK in the same time period ( available seat kilometers ) it would be interesting to know, what the increase in fuel costs per ASK was, if there was any at all, the total number as pointed out in the report is not that important, at least as long as you offer more seat kilometers...

And additionally what did they make from the fuel surcharges....airlines are pretty good these days trying to explain the nasty surcharges
