"There is no evidence for fuel shortages in the European Union at present, but supply issues could occur in the near future in particular for jet fuels."
"The airports lobby ACI Europe has warned the commission of a risk of 'systemic' jet fuel shortages if maritime traffic is not restored in the Strait of Hormuz by the end of April."
"Around a fifth of the world's jet fuel normally transits through the strategic waterway, which has been blocked by Iran since late February in response to Israeli-American air strikes."
"The conflict has sent jet fuel prices soaring, even more sharply than oil prices."
Currently, the European Union does not face fuel shortages, but there are concerns about potential jet fuel supply issues. The airports lobby ACI Europe has warned of systemic jet fuel shortages if maritime traffic in the Strait of Hormuz is not restored by the end of April. This waterway is crucial for jet fuel transit, and its blockage by Iran has led to soaring jet fuel prices. Airlines are canceling flights to manage rising fuel costs, impacting travel plans.
