Chaos as travellers in 4 holiday hotspots loved by Brits told of 'restrictions'

Holidaymakers heading to Italy are facing disruption after jet fuel limits were introduced at four major airports, sparking warnings of potential delays and travel chaos. Airports serving some of the country's most popular destinations, including Bologna, Venice, Treviso and Milan Linate, have been affected by temporary restrictions on fuel supplies.

An aviation notice issued Saturday said that "due to limited fuel availability from Air BP Italia, refueling services for operators contractually linked to Air BP Italia may be subject to restrictions." According to Italian news agency ANSA, a notice by Air BP Italia, part of the British giant BP, sent to airlines warned that priority for refueling would be given to ambulance flights, state flights, and flights lasting more than three hours. For other flights, distribution will be limited at least until April 9.
