Wirgin, due in large part to the pressure exerted from the EU about subsidising airlines and the resultant unfair competition, Emirates Airlines offer their balance sheets and financial records to all to scrutinise, and as such do pay for their fuel, and as such pass on a whopping fuel surcharge onto their passengers. In fact recently when buying a ticket to the Sub Continent, Emirates were charging a 250dirham (about $100 Oz Dollars) fuel surcharge, whilst Sri Lankan Airlines was charging none.
It is true that fuel here is cheaper than Oz or Europe, whether Avgas or Car fuel, but that makes sense, since we live above a sea of oil. Here we pay more for water, milk and beer, so I guess it all evens out. But my point is Emirates Airlines doesn't succeed because of having their fuel bought for them, they succeed because they are a damn good airline (and I don't work for them).
