Portland International Jetport is one of dozens of airports across the country that could see a sharp drop in service if high fuel costs trigger a potential "catastrophe" in the airline industry, a business travel advocacy group says.

IS IT TIME TO POP THE champagne for airline stocks? Share prices of airline companies had been sold down heavily since last year as crude oil prices soared to a record high of US$ 148/barrel, lifting aviation jet fuel prices in the process to its similar high. However, the commodity's price has since fallen substantially and fell to as low as around the US$ 90/barrel level recently before settling at around US$ 104 at the time of writing.

THE Malaysian aircraft maintenance, repair and overhaul sector is set to go places, thanks to the advantage of cost-effectiveness.
THE MALAYSIAN AIRCRAFT maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO) sector has seen tremendous growth in recent years. Despite very stiff competition from Singapore to become the MRO hub of choice in Asia, Malaysia is determined to carve out its place in the sun. Pundits say the recent crisis in the aviation industry caused by soaring fuel prices, and the current global economic downturn, is shifting the balance of cost- effectiveness in Malaysia's favour.

Louisiana's airports should be seeing more money from fuel tax collections, matching the nation's sky-high fuel prices. But the state's tax system structure is causing airports to miss out.
