Luftfahrt: Warum Fliegen im kommenden Jahr noch teurer wird
Es gelangen wieder mehr Öltanker durch die Straße von Hormus. Dennoch bleibt Kerosin teuer. Erste Manager warnen die eigene Branche davor, bei den Preisen nicht zu übertreiben.
In the coming year, flying may become 20 percent more expensive, according to Ryanair CEO Michael O'Leary. "I estimate that the largest increase in airfares Europe has ever seen will happen within the next twelve months," he stated at an event organized by European airline association A4E back in October. The prediction came as the conflict in the Middle East continues to be a source of tension and fuel prices remain high.
Unanimity among industry leaders has never been this strong on this issue. Lufthansa CEO Carsten Spohr echoed this sentiment, saying that ticket prices will likely double next year. Condor CEO Peter Gerber had previously noted at a Frankfurt event that flying will become pricier for everyone. While Hormuz Strait oil tankers are returning, higher refining and transportation costs mean kerosene remains expensive. There are additional factors that will drive ticket prices higher.
