Civilian aviation costs will increase 10x due to Iran war fuel price increases, collapsing the commercial airline industry
What Jiang said
“We can expect gas prices to skyrocket so much that it essentially collapses the civilian aviation industry. Meaning that in the future you want to fly, it might cost you 10 times as much as it does now, okay? And this will happen very very quickly”
Analysis
Jet fuel prices will rise so dramatically that flying will become 10 times more expensive than current prices, effectively destroying civilian aviation as an affordable mass transport
