I expect significant hikes to airfares in the coming months and also significant schedule cuts after demand falls off, particularly international flights and West Coast domestic flights due to record crack spreads for Diesel and Jet A
It’s like “Last of the Mohican’s” the way those kamikazee-Shaheed drones continue to impact oil infrastructure; oil holding tanks, refineries, terminals, and least of all tankers. If the red coats can’t figure out how to (cost effectively) defeat this threat, jet fuel prices will remain sky high. Worldwide demand/supply impacts domestic prices, despite how many wells the Permian can pump.
