Top three U.S. airlines raise round-trip ticket prices by $20 to recover fuel costs

The three biggest U.S. carriers said Thursday they have again raised ticket prices, this time by $20 round-trip, to recoup rapidly rising fuel costs.

The increases by American Airlines, United Airlines and Delta Air Lines affect the carriers’ fuel surcharges, which now total $130 round-trip on many flights. That means passengers on some cheap flights could be paying more in fees and taxes than for the airfare itself.
