Holiday travellers may have to expect disruptions to their upcoming plans after a bad batch of fuel forces airlines to ration.
The bad batch was sent out to Z Energy, who have since apologised for not noticing the shipment was faulty until it was too late.

Brad Olsen also stated that that the closure of Marsden Point paired with this upcoming busy travel season makes the markets particularly vulnerable.
