EU airline industry warns of fuel shortages if Strait of Hormuz stays closed

Airports Council International (ACI) Europe has warned the EU could face systemic jet fuel shortages within three weeks if the Strait of Hormuz does not reopen, as the Persian Gulf supplies 50% of Europe’s aviation fuel imports. The trade body is urging EU intervention—including collective jet fuel purchasing, temporary import restriction lifts, and increased support for sustainable aviation fuel—citing risks to airport operations, air connectivity, and European economies ahead of the summer tourism season.
