Air Canada suspends flights to New York’s JFK Airport due to aviation fuel crisis

Air Canada says it will suspend flights departing from Toronto and Montreal to New York’s John F. Kennedy International Airport starting June 1, until Oct. 25, due to rising jet fuel prices.

In a statement to CTV News, Air Canada says, “as jet fuel prices have doubled since the start of the Iran conflict and some lower profitability routes and flights are no longer economic,” the airline is “making schedule adjustments accordingly.”

The airline added that affected customers will be contacted with alternative travel options – with Air Canada continuing to fly to the nearby LaGuardia Airport and Newark Liberty International Airport, 34 times a day from six Canadian cities.
