*business · news · 2026-04-06 · Euronews*

## Key points

- Operational fuel restrictions are now active at Milan Linate, Bologna, Venice, and Treviso airports.
- Short-haul flights at these airports are limited to 2,000 litres of fuel per aircraft.
- This restriction makes direct domestic routes, like Veneto to Sicily, unfeasible without refuelling elsewhere.
- The fuel shortage is linked to the blockade of the Strait of Hormuz, disrupting European kerosene supplies.
- Ryanair may cancel summer flights if the Iran conflict and supply disruptions persist.

**Companies:** British Petroleum, Air Bp Italia, Lufthansa, Save Group, Ryanair
**Countries:** Italy, United Kingdom, Germany, Iran
