Extrapolated across all airports, that would affect 20 million passengers,\u201d said Beisel.<\/p>\n<div class=\"col-fullbleed mb-4 bg-marshmallow pb-5 dark:bg-ramones md:invisible md:mb-0 md:h-0 md:overflow-hidden md:pb-0\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-nowrap justify-center\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full items-center justify-center\" id=\"_R_oqnclckluaiv5tilbH1_\">\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\"><![CDATA[#_R_oqnclckluaiv5tilbH1_ { display: none; }\n@media screen and (max-width: 767.95px) {\n        #_R_oqnclckluaiv5tilbH1_ { display: flex; }\n        iframe { max-width: 100vw; }\n      }]]><\/style>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"col-body hidden dark:bg-ramones md:block\">\n<div class=\"flex w-full flex-nowrap justify-center\">\n<div class=\"flex hidden w-full items-center justify-center\" id=\"_R_18qnclckluaiv5tilbH1_\">\n<style type=\"text\/css\"><![CDATA[#_R_18qnclckluaiv5tilbH1_ { display: none; }\n@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {\n        #_R_18qnclckluaiv5tilbH1_ { display: flex; }\n        iframe { max-width: 100vw; }\n      }]]><\/style>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">That would mean some destinations would no longer be served at all and others would have fewer flights which would cost more.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">The war in Iran is disrupting oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz, driving up the price of jet fuel and prompting some airlines to cancel flights.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 min-w-0 leading-7 break-words md:leading-8 col-body text-[18px] charcoal-color\">\u201cKerosene prices have been twice as high as before the war for more than two months.
