Dan and Alex are back with another deep-dive into the ongoing Middle East aviation crisis — now hitting global airlines where it hurts most: jet fuel supply. Dan recounts his epic five-flight economy routing from Bangkok through China (Guangzhou, Wuhan, Urumqi) to Istanbul on China Southern, including a surprise COMAC C919 flight and navigating China's transit visa rules. The duo break down the global jet fuel shortage, airline fuel hedging strategies (Lufthansa, Ryanair, Singapore Airlines), skyrocketing fuel surcharges at Cathay Pacific, Air France-KLM, JAL, ANA, and more — plus mass flight cancellations at SAS, Air New Zealand, and Qantas. They also weigh in on Trump's proposal to privatize TSA security in the US.
