Cape Town International Airport is grappling with a potential jet-fuel shortage, triggered by an ongoing South African Revenue Service SARS audit.
According to the Fuels Industry Association of South Africa FIASA, this audit has delayed the distribution of aviation fuel in the city, putting flight operations at risk, reports Travel News .
As a temporary fix, airlines have arranged to source fuel from Johannesburgs OR Tambo International Airport starting from 19 November, though this depends on advance planning and coordination with ACSA.
