Air Canada is suspending service to Cuba due to a shortage of aviation fuel on the island.

The flag carrier it is suspending service, effective Monday, and over the following days it will operate empty flights to Cuba to pick up about 3,000 customers already there to bring them home.

Air Canada said it has made the decision following advisories issued by governments regarding the unreliability of aviation fuel supplies at Cuban airports. It is projected that as of Tuesday aviation fuel won't be commercially available at the those airports.

For remaining flights, Air Canada said it will tanker in extra fuel and make technical stops to refuel on the return journey if necessary.

Air Canada added that it will monitor the situation to determine an appropriate restart of normal service to Cuba at a future date. Customers in Cuba who have booked an Air Canada Vacations package can receive support from local representatives, and anyone with a scheduled departure who now faces a flight cancellation will receive a full refund, the company said.
