Should I book my holiday now or wait?

As the US and Israel’s war with Iran squeezes global oil supplies, there are fears about the cost and availability of flights as travellers plan their late spring and summer trips. The head of the International Energy Agency has warned that European countries could run low on jet fuel within weeks, forcing the continent’s airlines and carriers that fly to Europe to significantly reduce flights. The UK government recently issued a statement urging people not to worry or change their plans, but they also said they were working with airlines and airports to plan for possible shortages. Many airlines have already raised checked bag fees or added fuel surcharges as the global price of jet fuel increased from about $99 (£73.31) per barrel at the end of February to as high as $209 (£154.76) a barrel at the beginning of April.
