"The jet fuel shortage is already affecting air travelers: Due to the sharp rise in kerosene prices, numerous airlines worldwide are passing at least part of the increased costs on to their customers."
"Facua, the Spanish consumer protection organization, considers this unlawful, accuses the airline of a lack of transparency in its pricing and has filed a formal complaint."
"The International Air Transport Association (IATA) warns that a similar scenario is also emerging in Europe just as the summer holiday season is getting underway."
Jet fuel shortages may disrupt air travel due to the Iran war and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz. The International Air Transport Association and the International Energy Agency have issued warnings about potential shortages. Airlines are passing increased fuel costs onto passengers, with some, like Volotea, implementing surcharges. Consumer protection organizations are challenging these practices. Additionally, flight cancellations are a growing concern as airlines reduce schedules in anticipation of fuel supply issues, particularly in Europe as the summer holiday season approaches.
