CU has announced a critical shortage of jet fuel that is forcing major airlines and hotel operators to suspend or reduce their services across the island. The Cuban government first disclosed the shortage on February 8, marking the start of an ongoing crisis that has disrupted the tourism sector during the peak northern-hemisphere winter season. This period is a vital time for the industry, which serves as a primary source of foreign exchange for the national economy.
