U.S. Postal Service seeks 8% fuel surcharge for package deliveries as Iran war raises oil prices - CNBC
Overview
The U.S. Postal Service is seeking a temporary 8% fuel surcharge for package and express mail to offset sharply higher transportation costs. Delta’s baggage-fee increase shows the same pattern: different parts of the transport sector are passing higher fuel costs onto customers. Both moves reflect how rising oil prices tied to Middle East tensions are driving price adjustments across shipping and passenger services.
