Statement - June 2026
Over recent weeks, global fuel prices have risen significantly as a result of the ongoing conflict in the Middle East and the wider instability it has created in international energy markets. As a company whose operations rely heavily on marine fuel, these increases have had a substantial impact on our operating costs.
We have worked hard, behind the scenes, to absorb these rising expenses and have explored every option available to us to avoid passing additional costs on to our guests. Unfortunately, the continued volatility in fuel pricing has made it necessary for us to introduce a temporary fuel surcharge on upcoming departures.
Below are the current surcharges for upcoming trips as of 19-Oct-2026 and until further notice.

We truly appreciate your understanding and continued support.
Warm regards,
The Master Liveaboards Team
