Air India announced in July that it will fly its Airbus A350 jets to Newark and JFK Airports in just a few months.
The end is near for the smallest aircraft in JetBlue's fleet — one that's certainly seen better days.

It seems like Austin, Texas wasn't as hot as American Airlines had expected.

Avelo Airlines announced a whopping 18 new routes and three new destinations as part of what the startup carrier billed as the "largest expansion in company history."

American Express is making big moves south of the border.
Low-cost Icelandic airline Play is helping travelers plan a European shoulder season vacation by offering 25 percent off fall and early winter flights.
