Looming Jet Fuel Shortages?

Glad you are confident. I am especially worried about Air Malta what shape they will be in June. Ars you flying them?

Oh I’m not confident. Somehow we will get there. I just refuse to cancel.

Ah yep. To Malta. Lufthansa back. What could possibly go wrong……. Might check a back up. Your concerns based on?
 
Their already shakey financial position. They won't hesitate to cancel flights.
Air Malta went bankrupt in 2024. the new Malta Airlines is wholly government owned. Might they cancel flights? Yes, but Malta is part of the EU, so you get automatic re-routing in the event a flight is cancelled, including other airlines.
 
Well this will now drag on for months, Vance departed the meetings without any deal.

I’d just write off the remainder of this year. Come back next year.
 
I'd concur, it's looking increasingly unlikely that there will be a peace deal anytime soon. The US continues to send military assets to the region and Iran is still limiting the passage of ships in the Strait.

The US is reporting they've sent 2 warships into the Strait to clear sea mines placed by Iran, and of course Iran denies this took place.

Unfortunately I think we have a long way to go, and the odds of oil/fuel supply returning to normal are decreasing.
