American Airlines is temporarily cutting fares on its planned flights to Cuba as it prepares to inaugurate the commercial routes in September.

JetBlue announced its intent to serve three Cuban cities from Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport (FLL), bringing low-cost, high-quality daily service to customers traveling between the U.S. and Cuba for the first time in 50 years.

The carrier, which launched major new flights between the Northeast and Martinique and Guadeloupe last year, has announced new plans now.

It is no secret that JetBlue has been courting Virgin America’s fliers since its takeover by Alaska Airlines. ‘Blue indirectly targeted Virgin loyalists with a recent promotion for cross country flights.

The carrier announced that it would be adding daily service between Antigua and Dominica’s Canefield airport, along with daily service between St Maarten and Canefield.

Etihad Airways and Avianca Brasil, one of the leading airlines in Latin America, have announced a codeshare partnership.
