Middle East conflict disrupts travel and fuel supplies for Australians. Thousands of travellers are stranded at airports with flights cancelled through Dubai, Abu Dhabi and Doha, affecting approximately 3,500 flights and one million passengers globally. Fuel prices are expected to rise by 33 cents per litre by week's end due to supply concerns through the Strait of Hormuz, where 20% of the world's oil travels.
