Oh boy. You even don't know why they display this split. Long way to go
Don't care about the why. They rip people off for charging something that isn't there. When Geert Sciot was asked a few months ago by VRT news as to why the airline was still charging fuel surcharges the answer was a bit of stumbling, mumbling and that SN wasn't planning on removing the fuel surcharges from their ticket price

It is a matter of fact that all the airlines of the LH Group charge a high amount of various fees when you buy a so-called "free ticket" with miles. I remember that when I purchased a business class ticket to DXB with Miles & More, I had to pay more in various fees than the price of an economy ticket (something like 550 euros).
The way the major airlines portray fuel surcharges to customers shows they are either lying to customers or committing tax avoidance.
Regardless of why they may be displayed as such, it is unacceptable to see fares with "fuel surcharges" or EUR 80 to EUR 350 when oil prices are at historically low levels.

KLM accepts the challenge: they've just announced that they will fly Amsterdam-Dublin twice daily as from 30th October 2016. Aircraft: ERJ-190.
Maybe a copy/paste from what Brussels Airlines is doing at Brussels Airport: don't be afraid of going into direct competition with Ryanair. Just do it. And increase your fares on other routes with 0,5%.

Ryanair shifts focus to EU growth after Brexit vote
Ryanair will not place any of its new aircraft into the UK next year and focus solely on growth within the European Union.
In an interview with The Wall Street Journal chief executive Michael O'Leary said following the decision to leave the EU the airline will "pivot all of our growth into the European Union".
“We are taking another 50 aircraft next year. Would we place any of those in the U.K.? It is highly unlikely," said O'Leary.
He added: "There clearly is going to be a hit to UK GDP and to European GDP. There is three to four months of considerable uncertainty. The pound has fallen through the floor. It has all the feel and hallmark of another 9/11.”
Ryanair shares have dropped 23 per cent since Thursday's vote.
The Communication Manager (CM) of Ryanair has been fired. Why? Just for a tweet during the FRA-GER game in the Euro 2016.
The Irish did never forgive the French to qualify for the World Cup in 2009, thanks to a goal by the hand of Thierry Henry against Ireland. Thus, when the French made their first goal against Germany yesterday after a penalty was generously granted to them after an alleged hand of Schweinsteiger, the CM of Ryanair posted this tweet (which has since then been removed, together with the CM):
I guess there re some words a Communication Manager should never use, even if you know that Ryanair has posted other tweets during the Euro 2016 which were very close to the thin red line...
It's not an official confirmation, but this is what Airlive.net wrote: "..Here is what Ryanair community manager posted on Twitter yesterday, during semi final… before to get fired!..." http://www.airlive.net/news-here-is-wha ... emi-final/
