Sacramento Business Journal

Delta Airlines on Monday added a $110 roundtrip fuel surcharge on its Los Angeles-Honolulu flights.
The notice was posted Friday on the Web site of California-based travel company Pleasant Holidays. As of Monday, online fares for travel in mid-July between L.A. and Honolulu ranged from $726 on Northwest Airlines to $1,441 on Delta Air Lines.
Airline capacity from the West Coast to Hawaii was reduced by 94,000 a seats a month with the shutdown of Aloha Airlines on March 31 and ATA Airlines on April 2.
With the exception of a new Hawaiian Airlines route between Honolulu and Oakland, launched Thursday, U.S. carriers have not added capacity.
Hawaiian is owned by Hawaiian Holdings (AMEX: HA).

This is not a fuel surcharge at all

Supply and demand at work here. Notice the article cites capacity down 94,000 seats per month due to the untimely demise of ATA and Aloha.

Perhaps this is the General's attempt at sarcastic humor?
