Has troubles in the world changed your travel behaviour?

As the troubles of the world goes on and facing high fuel price, did anyone have feel the pressure either with air or land travel that you have changed your behaviour of?

I have been hearing many saying they are reducing driving as the result and I wonder if anyone also considering staying put in Easter as the result?

Not for myself & Mr LL -live in the Sydney CBD and drive less than 3000 K's per year. Longer range travel plans - we hope that the situation in the ME settles down and things will revert to 'normal'.

The current turmoil hasn’t specifically changed my travel behaviour, though I haven’t booked anything new in the past few weeks.
I do wonder “what if” for my existing flight bookings through to January 2027, and the prospect of airlines possibly having to reduce schedules due to fuel shortages, but no point worrying about things out of one’s control.

I just registered my car for the year. This year it is under 900 k's last year it was 1200 . I am reminded at this time of the year how little my car is driven lol

Thankfully the car is currently full .

The issues haven't affected us as such but son and his family yes. Interestingly I have been watching (prior to all this ) about what time of the year is good for sales to London for next year Dec. Singapore is up about $1000 from Jan for this Dec yet Malaysia airlines they are basically the same as they were prior to this. Business class from Sydney to London

I have got a couple of trips planned out, but will wait a bit before going ahead with them (or delaying them a bit).
I'd say more shuffling things around (delay some things, bring forward others)

Not really. We are driving from the South Burnett to Newcastle, Sydney and Brisbane on a 10 day relly run day after tomorrow. We have had stations in town run out over the last few days, particularly of diesel which is the local toilet paper, but the whole town has never run out or even looked like running out.

I did download the Qld and NSW fuel price apps, but I think they only tell you price rather than availability.

If you read the local Facebook pages or watch the regional news you'll discover the sky is falling
