Oh Behave! Flights in a Flap!

Alright groovy cats and kittens! Austin Powers here reporting live from my shagadelic headquarters. Turns out things are getting a bit 'hairy' in the Middle East. Apparently some squares (the U.S. baby!) decided to stir things up with Iran and now airlines are scrambling like they're trying to escape Dr. Evil's lair. Singapore Airlines those high flyers from Asia have already pulled the plug on flights from Singapore to Dubai. It's all a bit 'fluid,' if you catch my drift... yeah baby! Very VERY fluid.

Danger is My Middle Name (Actually It's Powers... But Still!)

Now I'm no expert but even I know that missiles and drone barrages are a real buzzkill for airline traffic. This 'Safe Airspace' website – sounds like a swanky nightclub doesn't it? – is warning that more U.S. attacks could make things even more dangerous for American airlines. Shag me this is getting serious! I mean more serious than Dr. Evil's threats to hold the world ransom for one MILLION dollars!

American Airlines Avoid Danger Smart

Before all this kerfuffle went down American Airlines and United Airlines got smart and nixed flights to Qatar and Dubai respectively. Smart move I say! Gotta protect those passengers baby! Safety first shagging second!

Jet Fuel Prices Set to Explode!?

As if cancelled flights weren't enough there's also the worry about oil prices going through the roof! That'll make jet fuel more expensive than a night out with Felicity Shagwell baby! The airlines are gonna feel that in their Austin Powers' bank account.

Israel to the Rescue (Groovy Baby!)

Meanwhile Israel's doing its best to get stranded travelers back home. They're ramping up 'rescue flights,' but with a limit of 50 passengers per flight. That's like trying to fit all my mojo into a mini fridge! But hey at least they're trying right? El Al the Israeli airline is swamped with requests from folks trying to escape the chaos. Sounds like they need a shag wagon to get them all out of there!

Yeah Baby! What Does It All Mean?

So what's the bottom line baby? The world's a bit of a mess right now and air travel is taking a hit. But don't you worry your pretty little head! Austin Powers is on the case! I'll get to the bottom of this even if it means facing off against Dr. Evil himself! Just try to avoid any suspicious looking travel itineraries and always remember: 'Smell the flowers and tell me who you love!' Groovy!
