IATA and S&P Global have both warned that fuel supplies will remain uncertain in the coming months. Global airline traffic was 2.2% lower in May than in the same month last year, dragged down by a near-30% drop in Middle East traffic as a result of the Iran war, while jet fuel challenges will persist… The post Jet fuel price falls to lowest level since Iran war began but challenges persist first appeared on FlightGlobal.

As airlines worldwide continue to grapple with persistent supply chain disruptions, spare parts shortages, and growing maintenance costs, the International Air Transport Association (IATA) and the International Airlines Technical Pool (IATP) have signed a cooperation agreement aimed at improving airline access to aircraft materials and strengthening maintenance resilience across the industry.

IATA Expects Sharp Drop In Profits As Fuel Price Surges Airlines have partly succeeded at passing on higher costs to consumers this year, but carriers worry that they might soon ask for too much and strangle demand. peri.meyers@in… Fri, 06/12/2026 - 08:00 Author Jens Flottau Lori Ranson Content source Aviation Week & Space Technology Content summary Another Monster Primary Category Airlines & Lessors

Twelve months ago, at IATA's 2025 Annual General Meeting in Delhi, the narrative surrounding global aviation was one of cautious optimism. Supply chain constraints remained severe, geopolitical risks persisted and profitability was still modest by most industrial standards. Yet the trajectory was unmistakably positive. Airlines were expected to generate approximately USD41 billion in net profit in 2026, margins were forecast to approach 4%, and the industry appeared to be gradually rebuilding financial resilience after half a decade of disruption. The outlook presented in Rio de Janeiro in Jun-2026 could hardly be more different. IATA has effectively halved its forecast for 2026 profitability. Net profit expectations have fallen from USD41 billion to USD23 billion. Net margins have collapsed from a projected 3.9% to 2.0%. Return on invested capital has slipped further below the industry's cost of capital. Most strikingly, these revisions have occurred despite record passenger numbers,

The aviation industry's latest fuel shock is frequently described as an oil crisis. That characterisation is incomplete. The evidence presented jointly by IATA and S&P Global at the IATA Annual General Meeting in Rio de Janeiro suggests that aviation is experiencing something far more complex: a jet fuel crisis. While crude oil prices have undoubtedly risen following the closure of the Strait of Hormuz and the disruption of Middle Eastern energy flows, the more significant development has been the fragmentation of jet fuel markets themselves. For decades, aviation has operated under the assumption that fuel is a globally traded commodity with relatively predictable regional price relationships. The current disruption has shattered that assumption. Regional jet fuel price differences that typically fluctuated within a range of USD2-41 per barrel have widened to as much as USD85 per barrel. Airlines are now discovering that geography matters again. The implications extend well beyond sho

A near halving of Middle East air travel demand drove a 3.4% global drop in RPKs in April Global air passenger traffic declined 3.4% year-on-year in April, marking the first contraction since the airline industry’s post-Covid recovery, as the Middle East conflict caused a 46.6% drop in demand for carriers in the affected region.
