The head of the International Energy Agency warned that Europe has about six weeks of jet fuel left, and flight cancellations may occur soon due to the global energy crisis caused by the Iran war. The crisis is expected to have significant implications for the global economy, including higher fuel prices and inflation.
The International Energy Agency's Executive Director, Fatih Birol, warned that Europe has approximately six weeks of jet fuel remaining. The global energy crisis, triggered by the Iran war and the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, is expected to have far-reaching consequences. The crisis has already led to significant disruptions in air travel, with cancelled routes and a sharp rise in jet fuel costs. Airlines, including Lufthansa and Virgin Atlantic, have warned of potential flight groundings and price increases. Birol stated that the impact will be felt globally, with higher petrol, gas, and electricity prices, and that some regions will be hit harder than others. The situation is expected to worsen in the coming months, with potential rationing of energy in many countries.
