“We have not seen any shortage of fuel anywhere, whether it’s domestic in the United States or for European travel,” said Jamie Walker, CEO of Jet Linx, a company that manages private jet fleets. Jet Linx has about 100 planes in 22 locations.
“We have obviously seen price increases, but we have not seen shortages in any of the airports that we’ve operated into.”
In fact, sales are up 80% on Jet Linx’s jet cards, Walker said. “Production of fuel has gone up by 6X, and so the U.S. is actually exporting a ton of fuel right now to Europe to overcome that shortage.”
“As an airline, we’re not seeing what they’re saying. There’s zero issue with [jet fuel], we’re buying from the same pump.”
