On March 19, 2026, Airlines for Europe (A4E) set out a series of strategies to address concerns over higher fares and route cutbacks. Airlines for Europe highlighted the “broken air traffic management system” where industrial action can have far reaching consequences for its members and their customers. “Fragmented European airspace finds itself closed down due to air traffic controller strikes. A strike in just one member state can shut down arriving and departing flights and also force overflying planes to detour,” said a spokesperson for Airlines for Europe. They added: “EU leaders must take this concern more seriously.” Our DG Willie Walsh – a founder of A4E – at their summit.

Airlines for Europe, whose members include Lufthansa, Air France-KLM, Ryanair, easyJet, and British Airways owner IAG, is preparing to call for at least a delay to the EU’s planned SAF mandate, and is also discussing whether to seek its removal altogether. The EU’s SAF rule currently requires 2% SAF use at EU airports in 2025 and is due to rise to 6% in 2030. Within that 2030 target, 1.2% must come from synthetic fuel, or eSAF, which is made using renewable electricity rather than biological feedstocks such as used cooking oil or waste oils. Reuters on March 17, 2026, reported that airlines argue there is not nearly enough eSAF production capacity available to meet the target on time, raising the prospect of sharply higher costs being passed on to passengers. Jet fuel prices, which were around $85 to $90 a barrel before the Iran conflict, surged to roughly $150 to $200 in the wake of the war, forcing airl | open |

Data from Flightradar24 , indicates that four Qatar Airways Airbus A330-300s are currently on route to Teruel Airport after departing from Doha Hamad International Airport (DOH). An Airbus A350-1000 is also heading to Teruel Airport from Los Angeles Airport (LAX) after leaving the United States at around 21:00, local time, on March 21, 2026. All five widebody aircraft are expected to arrive at their destination airport later this afternoon. According to Flightradar24, the four A330s and single A350-1000, will be join 15 Qatar Airways aircraft that have already been repositioned to Teruel Airport. Anna Zvereva / Creative Commons On March 21, 2026, six Qatar Airways planes arrived at the airport from various locations including Miami, Los Angeles, Houston, Sao Paulo, Larnaca and Lagos. The group of aircraft included four Airbus A350-1000s, one A320-200 and a Boeing 787-8 Dreamliner.

Teruel Airport was used by airlines to store aircraft during the COVID-19 Pandemic and is also known as one of Europe’s largest centres for maintenance. According to an update on March 19, 2026, Qatar Airways is currently operating a limited number of flights until March 28, 2026. According to Flightradar24, on March 21, 2026, Qatar Airways operated 115 flights, not including those to storage facilities.
