Recovery Boosts US Jet Fuel Demand

US jet fuel consumption is taking off as airlines bring their older, less-efficient planes back into service to meet rebounding travel demand — and the trend could continue into the summer season, according to government and industry statistics.

Kerosene-type jet fuel demand is up more than 4.1 percent at 1.64 million barrels per day in the past four weeks compared with last year, marking the fastest demand growth for any US fuel, according to the most recent government data.
