Recently, many countries including France and the United Kingdom announced the closure of airspace to Russia, resulting in the return of a large number of European personnel traveling on business or working in Russia being blocked. In response to the sudden "flight ban" of the landing, Russia also announced an air ban on 36 countries including Canada, the United Kingdom and many European countries as a response to its ban.
Flight bans and travel costs increase for people traveling back and forth
What impact will so many countries impose air flight bans on Russia?
First, the first thing that is affected is the personnel who need to commute to the air. Whether Russians want to study or work abroad, or people from other countries go to Russia, they will be affected. After the flight is banned, the route needs to be changed, which requires dozens of hours of extra time on the journey. At the same time, the inability to directly transfer will lead to a much higher ticket price, which is still the impact on the planned travelers.
is more direct. Passengers stranded at the airport are facing the dilemma of expiration of their visas. Once the visa expires, they may even face legal sanctions from local countries.
Second, the impact of the ban is that the "double-edged sword" will have a great impact on Russian and European airlines. Many airlines have had to open new routes to avoid passing through the airspace of banned countries. At the same time, the impact on the routes between Eurasian is very serious. At present, Air France has studied the new routes after Russia's ban. During this period, flights to and from China, South Korea and Japan have been suspended. Due to the special geographical location, Finnair cannot avoid Russian airspace and has announced that it will stop flights to Russia, China, South Korea and Japan before March 6. Due to the special nature of the current situation in Russia and Ukraine, the cost and number of aviation crude oil in the future will be affected. It is expected that shipping prices may rise in the future to recover more losses.
Oil prices have an impact on air freight costs
Third, air freight may be affected. Air cargo has always been an important branch of the logistics industry. After the ban, the corresponding shipping routes through European and Russian airspace will change or cancel. On the one hand, after the change of the route, it is necessary to find a temporary shutdown transit station because it cannot reach directly, which greatly increases the transportation cost. On the other hand, after the flight is grounded, some cargo needs to be transported by sea, which undoubtedly increases the pressure on maritime transportation. About 15% of the world's crew members come from Russia and Ukraine. Currently, due to the impact of the situation in Russia and Ukraine, the shipping industry has also indirectly affected the labor shortage. The International Chamber of Shipping (ICS) said that with the cancellation of flights in the region (Ukraine), the return of the corresponding crew members and shifts were greatly affected. At the same time, facing a deeper reason for the international epidemic, the contracts of about 100,000 maritime transport personnel have been overdue.
Air cargo is restricted and the pressure on sea freight increases
Whether it is Europe's "ban on flights" to Russia, or Russia's "airspace" is closed. This will indirectly increase the tension in the situation in Russia and Ukraine. At the same time, illegal sanctions against Russia by many countries may further intensify the conflict between Russia and Ukraine.
The United States announced economic sanctions on Russia
At the same time, the prices of international crude oil soared and aluminum prices rose. With the changes in the international financial market in the future, ordinary people will be most affected. The United States announced economic sanctions on Russia, which affected the international financial situation.
Prices rise, and the people pay for the orders
In the end, the ordinary people who are affected may be the ones who will pay for this war. The most intuitive change is that when you shop, the rise in prices may provoke your sensitive nerves. What do you think?
