Brent crude fell to around $72.5 a barrel, its lowest level since before the Iran conflict, as easing concerns over Middle East supply disruptions weighed on prices. The benchmark has erased most of the gains recorded during the conflict.
The decline followed improving crude flows through the Strait of Hormuz after a preliminary U.S.-Iran agreement and the resumption of tanker traffic. Higher crude exports from the Middle East and ample near-term supplies have also softened the physical oil market.
Lower crude prices are generally positive for airlines because aviation turbine fuel (ATF), which is linked to global oil prices, is one of their largest operating expenses. A sustained decline in crude prices can help reduce fuel costs and support profit margins.
The gains came after Brent crude dropped nearly 5% to around $83 per barrel as investors welcomed signs of easing tensions in the Middle East and the potential reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, a key global oil transit route.
Market sentiment improved after US President Donald Trump announced that a peace deal with Iran had been completed. The agreement is expected to lead to the reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, through which nearly one-fifth of global oil shipments pass. Reports indicate that the deal could be formally signed later this week.
Lower crude prices are generally positive for airlines as aviation turbine fuel (ATF) is one of their largest operating expenses. A decline in oil prices can help reduce fuel costs and support profit margins, particularly for carriers with significant domestic and international operations.
Travel and tourism-related stocks also witnessed buying interest. Investors expect improved stability in global energy markets and lower fuel costs to support demand and profitability across the sector.
Brent crude rose 4.54% to $97.32 per barrel after reports indicated that Israel had struck military targets in Iran following missile attacks by the Islamic Republic.
The increase in crude oil prices weighed on investor sentiment toward airline stocks, as aviation turbine fuel is one of the largest operating costs for carriers. Higher fuel prices can increase operating expenses and potentially impact profitability.

“IndiGo will resume bookings for all the impacted services starting 1 October 2026; however, should the environment become favourable, IndiGo stands prepared to reinstate these services earlier than scheduled, in appropriate lead time,” the company said in a statement.
The airline further said that it has managed to retain majority of its international operations, i.e. over 1,800 weekly international flights, despite this realignment.
These measured changes are designed to align capacity with current market conditions and demand trends, while ensuring the airline maintains reliability and network integrity across its global destinations.
The airline will continue to monitor the situation given the elevated operating costs and continued airspace restrictions.
