Air Canada halts Cuba routes amid aviation fuel shortage
Air Canada has suspended its four Cuba destinations from Toronto and Montreal due to a shortage of aviation fuel on the island, with a NOTAM indicating no jet fuel will be available at Cuban airports until at least 11 March; about 3,000 customers in Cuba will be repatriated in coming days. The crisis stems from Cuba's reliance on Venezuelan oil amid US sanctions, and while WestJet and Air Transat have not yet paused Cuba service, Air Canada will monitor the situation and restart flights when feasible.
