Air Canada Suspends JFK Flights

The suspension is expected to last until late October, significantly impacting summer travel plans for thousands of passengers.

While Air Canada will continue to operate 34 daily flights to other New York-area airports, the loss of the JFK route highlights the deepening impact of the global energy crisis on the aviation industry.

Industry experts warn that other major carriers may follow suit as they struggle to maintain profitability amid volatile oil prices.

The move comes as a blow to travelers who have already seen airfares fluctuate wildly in response to the Middle East conflict.
