It seems like 2026 is just not a good year for travel. You can’t ignore the rising costs of gas, so road trips are a lot more expensive. Of course, this has also led to rising costs for air travel, with many airlines struggling to keep up. One popular budget airline, Spirit, has gone completely out of business this year.
American Airlines
Other airlines are doing what they can to get by, which generally means cancelling flight routes. Delta Airlines recently cut flights, while other airlines are starting to follow suit. According to CBS News, this includes American Airlines, which just cut six of its routes.
American Airlines is temporarily cutting routes due to the rising cost of jet fuel caused by the ongoing war in Iran. It has adjusted schedules for “select routes” in August and September because of elevated fuel costs. However, the airline stressed that the cuts would not be permanent.

The cost of jet fuel is a large part of an airline’s operating costs. Some airlines have responded to rising fuel costs with added surcharges or higher ticket prices, while also canceling routes that are considered unprofitable. American Airlines will take care of customers with tickets on the routes affected by either rebooking them on a different flight or offering a full refund.
We’ll keep an eye on the air travel situation and let you know when it changes, so stay tuned to Magical Guides for more.
