Vietnam Faces April Flight Cuts After China, Thailand Halt Jet Fuel Exports

Vietnam's aviation industry is bracing for significant flight disruptions and potential cancellations beginning in April. The looming crisis is a direct result of neighboring China and Thailand imposing a ban on jet fuel exports. This has created a critical supply shortage for Vietnamese carriers, who are heavily dependent on these imports for daily operations. Airlines and government authorities are now urgently searching for alternative fuel sources to prevent widespread grounding of aircraft and minimize the economic impact.
