Oceanjet implements 10% fuel surcharge across key Visayas and Mindanao routes

Fastcraft operator OceanJet has announced the implementation of a temporary 10% fuel surcharge across multiple routes in the Visayas and Mindanao regions, effective September 21, 2026. The adjustment comes in response to the continuous increase in global fuel prices.
