Why travel rumours are loud and fragile
Strikes, fog, and IT meltdowns move prices in bursts, then often mean-revert when operators tweet. Markets teach you to spot that pattern instead of rebooking at 2 a.m. on adrenaline.
What the price is measuring
It is usually a narrow event: flight operates, border rule holds, storm clears. If your holiday happiness depends on five things, one market only prices one of them — keep the rest in your spreadsheet.
- →Confirm with the operator before you spend.
- →Watch for thin markets jumping on one tweet.
- →Use crowd odds as triangulation, not a crystal ball.
Markets do not know your passport number — they know whether informed people think a headline will stick.
