Fuel Futures...
I would think a war with a middle eastern country could initially trigger some fears among potential airline customers, especially among the international travelers. On the other hand, given all that's happened in the last year, you just don't know how people will react this time around. As for fuel costs, I wouldn't be too concerned there, most airlines are currently (just written about on the business wires) arranging to purchase jet fuel futures, essentially locking themselves in on a given fuel price for a set period of time.
