Here's a different take on the fuel surcharge issue.
Rather than dropping the supplement altogether, Fred Olsen Cruise Lines is offering passengers who have paid the surcharge a refund if the price of oil is on average less than £40 per barrel in the calendar month before their departure.
The rebate will be offered for cruises after January 1 2009. As with other lines, money will be given back as on-board credit rather than a cash.

I asked the Island press office. The fuel surcharge will be lifted from Thomson cruises at the same time - tomorrow.

Interesting. I assume you are talking about fuel supplements? Maybe you can elaborate?
