"We had problems because of a shortage of jet fuel in three Italian airports -- Venice, Brindisi and Catania. It was all resolved within a day and in some cases within hours, without having to cancel flights."
"The effective closure of the Strait of Hormuz due to the war in Iran is raising the risk of a jet fuel shortage in Europe, just as the big summer travel season is approaching."
"I think we are currently watching each other (between airlines) to understand how serious the situation might become. Jet fuel has been supplied adequately across Europe, with a minor hiccup in Italy."
"Demand is hesitant in Europe for the coming weeks, adding: 'People are waiting to see what will happen.'"
Wizz Air reported jet fuel shortages at three Italian airports: Venice, Brindisi, and Catania. The issues were resolved quickly, often within hours. Earlier warnings indicated limitations on jet fuel supplies across Europe, particularly due to the conflict in Iran affecting the Strait of Hormuz. Despite these challenges, Wizz Air noted that Europe has not faced significant fuel shortages compared to Asia. The airline is monitoring the situation and plans to ensure adequate fuel supply for flights, with demand in Europe currently hesitant as travelers await developments.
