Today’s X Picks:
@GeorgeNTravels IATA has updated its weekly Fuel Monitor…and the news is bleak. In Europe, a barrel of Jet Fuel now costs $192.38 on average, an increase of 111% in last year. Its clear why Ryanair has been so brutal with its schedule cuts for this winter, and why others won’t be far behind.
@GlobalAir Bombardier’s 200th Challenger 3500 delivery is not the real story. Midsize jets just posted the steepest used-value decline of any segment, down 6.54% in June, as buyers trade up a class. The super-mid is winning, and midsize is paying for it.
@gulf_news Dubai tourism surges with 869,000 visitors in August 2026, highest since February, as hotel occupancy climbs and airlines rebuild global connectivity.
@Heidi_Labour Delighted that @Gatwick_Airport and @LDNLutonAirport can get on with expansion plans following two court rulings in the government’s favour. This unlocks investment, jobs and more choice for holidaymakers – all backed by £219m for green fuel.
