Canadian Airlines Suspend Cuba Flights Amid Fuel Shortages

Two Canadian airlines, WestJet and Transat, have temporarily halted their services to Cuba due to a shortage of aviation fuel on the island. Bloomberg posted on X that these suspensions come as Cuba faces ongoing challenges in securing sufficient fuel supplies for its aviation sector. The decision by the airlines reflects the broader impact of fuel shortages on travel and tourism in the region. Both carriers have not specified when they plan to resume flights, leaving travelers uncertain about future travel plans to the Caribbean destination. The situation underscores the vulnerability of Cuba's infrastructure to external supply chain disruptions.
