Episode Description from the Publisher

Jet fuel prices have doubled. Airlines are cutting schedules, cancelling routes, and quietly grounding aircraft. Today On-Air, Dan and Alex break down the deepening global aviation fuel crisis triggered by the US-Iran conflict and the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. From Sydney Airport warning of no fuel guarantees, to US carriers with zero hedging exposure, to European hubs weeks from running dry - no market is safe. They cover airline groundings, soaring fares, fuel tankering, the 1970s energy crisis parallel, and answer listener questions on whether your upcoming flight is at risk.Please send us your questions, topics, or opinions via direct message on Instagram below.Follow Nonstop Dan on YouTube and Instagram.Follow Alex Macheras on X (Twitter) and Instagram.Contact for sponsorship: collabs@nonstopdan.comAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy
