FUEL SURCHARGE FOR BLUE LAGOON CRUISES

Applicable for travel from 01 May 2026

What you need to know

1st May 2026

 

Dear Guests,

 

Blue Lagoon Cruises is writing to advise our valued guests that a mandatory fuel surcharge is now in effect until further notice.

As of the 1st of May 2026, the price of diesel fuel has increased some 76% compared to just two months ago and is up even further when compared to when our cruise rates were set and released in mod-2025.

The mandatory fuel surcharge applicable will be FJ$10.00 per person per night and will be charged to guests’ cabins to pay onboard at the conclusion of their cruise.

We’d like to thank our guests for their understanding of our need to recover a percentage of this significant increase in fuel costs. We also ask that Terms & Conditions are noted which are as follows:

“While we try our utmost not to increase our prices, this is sometimes outside our control. On that basis, we reserve the right to amend our prices although amendments should occur only in the instance of increases in our costs to deliver the cruise such as but not limited to, fuel costs, government taxes and charges, exchange rate fluctuations, and ground costs beyond the control of Blue Lagoon Cruises and which are deemed material to operations.”

For those guests that aren’t aware, the price of fuel in Fiji is set by the Fijian Competition & Consumer Commission (FCCC) to take effect on the first day of each month. The price of fuel in Fiji is based on a range of factors globally but most noticeably by movement in the Means of Platts Singapore (MOPS) oil market, the availability of fuel from foreign suppliers, international freight rates, and foreign exchange rates. The fuel price in Fiji is often 1-2 months behind fuel prices in other global markets such as Australia, New Zealand and North America, and hence cannot be compared with countries who adjust their fuel prices on an almost daily basis.

Blue Lagoon Cruises thanks all guests for your understanding of the current situation and your acceptance of the mandatory fuel surcharge when settling your tab.

 

Vinaka,

Blue Lagoon Cruises
