Business jet operators in Europe fear a shortage of aviation fuel.


With the tourist season in full swing, passenger air travel has increased significantly. Against this backdrop, business jet operators in Europe are concerned about a potential shortage. aviation fuel.

This information was published in the British newspaper The Financial Times.

At the same time, private airlines fear that, given the fuel shortage, suppliers will prioritize fuel supplies to large national airlines, leaving private airlines with limited capacity. This could very well happen given the shortage of supplies.

Business jet owners are extremely concerned about this prospect, as demand for their services has increased significantly.

That their concerns are well-founded is demonstrated by a recent incident in Nice. This city's airport is considered the largest business jet operator on the Côte d'Azur. For several hours, private jets were unable to refuel there. Airport authorities soon reported that the problem had been resolved.

According to Charles Robinson, CEO of British online business jet rental platform EnterJet, private jet routes in Europe will have to be rerouted, avoiding airports with jet fuel shortages.

Russian Deputy Prime Minister Vitaly Savelyev also previously noted problems with refueling civilian aircraft. He said that so far, they have been resolved promptly.

    Given the fuel situation in Russia, this repost of the article looks like blatant mockery.

      When we reduce the number of scheduled buses, the problems of those who own business jets do not bother me at all.

    Is he definitely talking about business jets?

    If there's one thing business jet owners fear, it's that their banks won't have enough zeros in their accounts to recalculate their profits.
