Did ANA increase fuel charges overnight?

I was looking at several west coast to TYO routes this week and the fuel charges were about $220 which is what I am used to paying, now they seem to have jumped to $350+ since yesterday. Anyone else notice this and know if it is permanent or some type of temporary glitch?

United States - Passenger Civil Aviation Security Service Fee (AY) USD 5.60
United States - Animal and Plant Health Inspection Service Fee (APHIS User Fee - Passengers (XA) USD 3.96
