Update on Issues in Aviation Sector: Engagement with Mr. Willie Walsh

Mr. Willie Walsh:

The impact on the supply of oil has not been the same as the impact on the supply of gas. From an airline point of view, we have seen volatility in oil price. Some Russian oil was refined to jet fuel. It has had an impact but not to the same degree as the impact of the supply of Russian gas to many counties. I do not think we are facing a similar crisis of the availability of jet kerosene as is being experienced with gas supply and, therefore, electricity that has been dependent on gas or heating. That has been prevalent.
