Soaring jet fuel prices and shortages could threaten your European vacation - The Washington Post

Soaring jet‑fuel prices and looming supply shortages tied to the war in Iran are raising the risk of chaotic air travel in Europe this summer and driving up fares in both Europe and the United States. Even if immediate shortages are avoided, continued supply disruption through key chokepoints and volatile crude markets mean airlines may face higher costs and operational strain for months. Those higher fares are already pushing some American travelers to opt for cheaper domestic vacations rather than long-haul trips to Europe, reducing demand on transatlantic routes.
