Description

Since the Iran war broke out, the Strait of Hormuz has effectively been blocked. Click here to subscribe to our channel 👉🏽 https://bbc.in/3VyyriM The Strait is one of the world's busiest oil shipping routes - leading to fears about shortages of jet fuel. Prices for aviation fuel more than doubled after the war began, and the cost of some plane tickets has gone up dramatically. In May 13,000 flights were cut from schedules. BBC business reporter Emer Moreau joins What in the World to discuss all of your burning questions. ---------------- This is the official BBC World Service YouTube channel.
