A jet fuel crisis has developed at Cape Town International Airport due to the largest supplier not being able to meet demand as a result of technical issues caused by load shedding.
Another reliable source in the aviation industry, who wants to remain anonymous, told News24 airlines were informed that this large supplier has only been able to produce a fraction of what it normally does.
