Looming Jet Fuel Shortages?

I wonder, what is the maximum storage capacity in Australia for each of the 3 fuels??

Europe seems to be allowing US jet fuel which is good news

Is the only difference between Jet A+ fuel and the American Jet A the lower freezing point, and if so, why the difference ?

Jet A+ has prist by default, which is an icing inhibitor needed for aircraft without fuel heaters

So why don’t they add this to fuel in Europe. Is there a disadvantage?

What’s the current situation on Jet fuel pricing? I note fuel at the car bowser has dropped in recent weeks, are airlines also getting some relief now?

I see some LCCs in Asia are cutting as much as half the schedule next month.

I assume there is a tail end to jet fuel dropping, if say oil fell through the floor next week.

The Europeans have JetA1 which already has a lower freezing point than the US JetA. However JetA1 does not contain Prist.

Not all turbine fuel in US is sold as JetA+ .
