Pilots to implement fuel levy

30 Mar 2022 / Torres Straits, Australia

Due to recent increases in fuel prices, Auriga Pilots Pty have announced the implementation of a fuel levy from 1 April.

Their pilot launch and helicopter pilot transfer operations are incurring additional costs which we will be unable to absorb under our current tariff of rates.

The levies – which are hoped to be short-term - will be as follows:

Route: Great North East Channel
- Fuel Levy Amount: $115.00 per Pilotage

Route: Inner Route
- Fuel Levy Amount: $115.00 per Pilotage

Route: Hydrographers Passage
- Fuel Levy Amount: $220.00 per Pilotage
