Colorado Springs Airport is dealing with a fuel shortage, officials announced Monday afternoon. The shortage could cause some flights to be delayed or redirected.
Aidan Ryan, the marketing and communications manager at the airport, said in a statement the shortage is due to an issue with Valero and a workaround is in place. A contingency plan has been put in to place involving tankers delivering fuel directly to the service supplier, however a nationwide shortage of drivers may affect fuel delivery, the statement read.
The Gazette received a tip Monday, claiming that flights were being redirected to Pueblo in order to get fuel.
