JetBlue to cut or suspend 27 routes this summer
CBSN
Just as air travel is roaring back to pre-pandemic levels, oil prices are rising due to Russia's ongoing invasion of Ukraine. Experts say the surge in costs is causing airlines to pull back on leisure routes introduced during the pandemic as longer-haul routes that consume more jet fuel start to make less financial sense for carriers.
JetBlue is cutting or suspending 27 routes this summer, according to data from Cirium, aviation news outlet Simple Flying first reported. The airline is cutting two routes permanently: Austin to Cancun and Nashville to Cancun. The remaining routes, including many to destinations in Florida, are slated to return in the fall.
JetBlue's Boston to Key West, Florida route will temporarily end on May 1 and return October 30. Its flight from JFK airport in New York to Key West follows the same schedule.

Robert Morris, founding pastor of Gateway Church, a megachurch in Southlake, Texas, has been indicted on five counts of lewd or indecent acts with a child, stemming from alleged incidents dating back to the 1980s, the Oklahoma attorney general's office announced Wednesday. We are aware of the actions being taken by the legal authorities in Oklahoma and are grateful for the work of the justice system in holding abusers accountable for their actions. We continue to pray for Cindy Clemishire and her family, for the members and staff of Gateway Church, and for all of those impacted by this terrible situation.
