“Jet fuel cliff” is not the name of a male worker at one of the fuel farms that supply aircraft at Heathrow, Gatwick and Manchester. The term is being used in aviation circles to describe the possible collapse of Jet A-1 supplies in Europe, Asia and beyond.
With aviation fuel stuck on the wrong side of the Strait of Hormuz, there is an increasing focus on how airlines would cope were supplies to start to dry up.
