AI-generated

The closure of the Strait of Hormuz disrupts ~20% of Europe's kerosene supply, causing aviation fuel price spikes and potential shortages during peak summer travel. The EU is considering regulatory easing (Jet A fuel approval, tankering, slot allocation) to mitigate. Airlines face margin squeeze from higher fuel costs; refiners may benefit from higher margins but face crude supply constraints. Impact is region-specific (Europe) with global spillovers via jet fuel prices.
