Winning travellers back after disruption
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
With hopes of de-escalation after the US-Iran ceasefire, we ask whether passengers are ready to book again, how quickly routes can normalise, and whether jet fuel and insurance costs could keep fares higher for longer.
US President Donald Trump says the Strait of Hormuz will be completely open by Friday, but what do vessels, crews and maritime authorities need before traffic can move safely again?

Do you have a will in the UAE?
And why do humans seem to always turn left?
