The Globe and Mail reports in its Wednesday edition that WestJet and Air Transat have suspended flights to Cuba, joining Air Canada as the Caribbean country warns it will run out of jet fuel amid a U.S. oil blockade. The Globe's Eric Atkins writes that the two airlines stopped carrying passengers south to the resort destination and will send empty planes to bring home customers in the coming days. They both offer tour packages through related companies, including WestJet's Sunwing Vacations. Before cancelling their schedules, Canadian airlines were slated to operate 605 flights with 116,000 seats to Cuban destinations in February. This includes 400 flights by WestJet, 144 by Air Transat and 61 by Air Canada. Cuba said it will stop refuelling by Feb. 10 because the U.S. cut off its main fuel supply from Venezuela after capturing its leader Nicolás Maduro and his wife in a raid in January. Mexico, Cuba's second-biggest oil source, stopped selling oil to Cuba late last month under pressure from U.S. President Donald Trump, who threatened tariffs on any country that supplied the communist country. On Monday, Air Canada halted its Cuban flights and began sending planes to ferry home 3,000 of its customers on the island.
