    Given all the news lately around that airline the skies are probably safer

    The price of airfare increased and Air India cut the flights because there wasn’t enough demand.

    I’d be very nervous if I had flights booked to anywhere outside of North America this summer. Europe and many Asian countries are starting to run very short of jet fuel and we’ve only seen the tip of the iceberg so far in terms of flight cancellations.

    ITT: People who dislike Air India because it’s not a good airline. People who dislike Air India because they’re racist.

    Good luck!

    Of all the airlines… We should probably have a suspension on them flying here anyways for now.

  6. Probably the first domino to fall.

    The EU is looking at needing to start rationing fuel by mid june, with more severe rationing coming every month as time goes on, and they updated their guidance on passenger rights in in this context as of today (may 8).

    There’s enough other capacity with the strait of hormuz closed that it’s not like the world is going to run *out* of fuel, but because airlines generally need to price their tickets in advance and can’t change the fuel surcharge after sale, you will probably see a lot of volatility in the market, a bunch of people underpaying and overpaying as the airlines guess what they will need to pay weeks or months in advance.

    India and parts of the far east have already seen something like 50% reductions in overall fuel supply, with major rationing and supply problems, and at this point, some of the chaos is going to be baked in for weeks as the Iranian pipelines will need to refill to put their supply back on the market when there is a situation that opens the strait.
