- Rising jet fuel costs are forcing airlines to cut flights — and travelers coul...
Fewer flights will likely lead to higher fares By Mark Huffman of ConsumerAffairs September 18, 2026 American, United and Southwest are trimming flight schedules as a surge in jet fuel prices makes some routes less profitable.Fewer flights could mean higher fares, fewer nonstop choices and less flexibility when flights are canceled or delayed.The cuts are arriving just as travelers begin making holiday plans, increasing the risk that popular flights will fill up earlier than usual.Airlines are responding to another surge in jet fuel prices by cutting flights, a move that could leave travelers with fewer choices and keep upward pressure on airfares through the end of the year.Executives at American Airlines, United Airlines and Southwest Airlines said this week that elevated fuel costs are forcing them to take another look at their schedules, particularly flights and routes that produce relatively little profit. Demand for travel, meanwhile, remains strong.That combination strong demand and fewer available seats could be particularly noticeable to consumers.United has already removed some flights that had been planned for December and could make additional adjustments during the first quarter of 2027 if fuel prices remain high. American is also considering further capacity reductions, while Southwest has already sharply reduced its planned capacity growth for 2026.Fuel is taking a bigger biteFuel has always been one of an airline's largest expenses, but the recent increase has dramatically changed the economics of some flights.American said the latest fuel-price increase alone could add about $1 billion to its fourth-quarter costs. American CEO Robert Isom said sustained high fuel prices would require adjustments to the airline's future capacity plans.The airlines aren't necessarily eliminating entire destinations. Instead, they can reduce the number of daily flights, use different aircraft or temporarily suspend routes where revenue isn't high enough to justify the increased cost.American took that approach earlier this year when it temporarily suspended six routes for August and September, including Los Angeles-Cleveland, Los Angeles-Pittsburgh and Charlotte-Sacramento, citing elevated fuel costs.Why fewer flights can mean higher faresFor travelers, the biggest effect could be ticket prices.Airlines have already been able to raise fares while maintaining strong demand. Cutting additional capacity removes seats from the market, making it easier for carriers to maintain higher prices rather than discount tickets to fill airplanes.The effect may be most pronounced on routes that have several flights a day today. An airline might decide that instead of operating four flights between… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 days ago - Gen Z Can’t Get Enough Of The ‘Boob Rest’ Pose
