I came across this interesting piece of INVESTIGATIVE JOURNALISM, which doesn’t exist in mainstream media:
https://insideparadeplatz.ch/2026/10/17/schweiz-gibt-ihr-kerosin-notlager-der-lufthansa/
– So Switzerland has tapped their emergency jet fuel storage for Zürich airport to have enough
– This strategic reserve was already 25% below the target of 3 months of supply at the END OF 2025, now there’s only 2.2 months left
– This shortage is said to have been caused by low water levels in river shipping, and congestion at rail transport.
– HOWEVER, also Frankfurt Airport in GERMANY is unable to supply enough fuel. For that reason, SWISS (the airline) is tankering fuel to Frankfurt from Switzerland, so that they don’t need to re-fuel there. In other words, Switzerland is using their strategic reserves to supply FRANKFURT.
My own comments:
Water levels CONTINUE to be record low in central Europe, the winter is coming, so major resupply will not happen anytime soon.
Can you IMAGINE what happens if SWITZERLAND, one of the richest countries in the world, will have to start cancelling flights due to FUEL SHORTAGE? That will have MASSIVE cascading impact on the country, it will be like the “Dubai-moment” for this place.
Pretty much all of Europe is anyway FUBAR at this point, and of course the media says NOTHING about it. But the cracks are spreading already, it’s happening. The last one will not need to turn off the lights, because the lights will be already out.
We are living in VERY interesting times.
