Wizz Air CEO Cautions on Fuel Shortages

József Véradi, Wizz Air CEO, says European jet fuel shortages unlikely due to $1,500 per metric tonne prices.
US-Israel-Iran conflict closed Hormuz for 8 weeks, disrupting Gulf supplies and driving jet fuel prices from $831 to $1,500.
Industry uses hedging to lock in fuel costs, while Véradi notes short-term price spikes may ease booking hesitancy.
Spain's Jordi Hereu urges flight bookings to avoid rising fares, while UK travel agent chief Mark Tanzer reports no supply disruptions.
Véradi predicts jet fuel prices will remain high for 18 months, criticizing Europe's reliance on Middle East energy as 'crazy'.
