Rising fuel costs put budget airlines under pressure

Season 2026 Episode 90 | 6m 01s

As the war with Iran sends jet fuel prices soaring, several U.S. budget airlines are asking the federal government for a $2.5 billion lifeline. The appeal comes as Spirit Airlines faces potential bankruptcy and is negotiating separately for a $500 million government bailout. Reuters aviation, transportation and technology correspondent David Shepardson joins Geoff Bennet to discuss.
