原文：What to Know About the Looming European Jet Fuel Shortage. The stage is set for a difficult summer of international travel, as Europe faces a jet fuel shortage as a result of the war in Iran.
伊朗冲突直接导致本周航空燃油短缺。自2月底美国和以色列对伊朗发动袭击以来，霍尔木兹海峡基本上仍然禁止出口，导致全球石油供应减少并推高价格。
最近，国际能源署负责人告诉美联社，欧洲航空燃油供应有限，引发了航班大幅取消和旅行成本上升的警告。随着夏季的临近，通常繁忙的旅行季节也可能会受到影响。
为什么航空燃油短缺？
由于伊朗战争，霍尔木兹海峡仍然关闭，航运中断限制了该地区的石油出口。美国在某种程度上是孤立的，因为该国大部分喷气燃料库存都是在国内生产的。但欧洲和亚洲国家更加依赖该地区的石油，导致该地区潜在的石油短缺。由于流经海峡的石油减少，航空燃油供应大幅下降。
这将如何影响旅行？
Fatih Birol, executive director of the International Energy Agency, said Thursday that if the strait is not soon reopened, Europe could run out of jet fuel in about “six weeks,” the Associated Press reports .专家警告说，这样的短缺也会产生持久影响。 European airlines may struggle to support the busy summer season, and vacation seekers abroad could face “widespread flight cancellations,” the Washington Post reports .由于危机，旅客的票价已经上涨，航空公司也开始取消一些航班。
美国航班受到影响吗？
与欧洲不同，美国大部分航空燃油在国内生产。 This means jet fuel supplies aren’t shrinking in the same way, but higher oil prices have still increased travel costs for Americans – U.S. airlines like Alaska Air, American Airlines and Delta have all hiked baggage fees, the Independent reports .
