A jet fuel shortage in Japan has now affected Narita airport, one of the country's largest airports. The shortage is impacting operations of six Asian carriers and 57 flights per week. Narita airport is seeking additional fuel suppliers and has requested government and distributors to receive fuel from overseas. Factors contributing to the shortage include labor shortages at airports and logistical bottlenecks. The increase in international travel is driving up global jet fuel consumption, with Japan experiencing a rise in inbound travel due to a weak yen.
