Winning travellers back after disruption

from The Agenda · host Dubai Eye 103.8

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? Even if the Strait reopens, the crisis has raised a bigger question for the UAE: how much should the country rely on one maritime chokepoint? Do you have a will in the UAE? And why do humans seem to always turn left?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
