The decision over rising jet fuel prices will affect flights from Toronto and Montreal to New York's John F. Kennedy International Airport from June 1st to the end of October.

Air Canada says jet fuel prices have doubled since the beginning of the Iran conflict and it no longer makes sense economically to continue some routes.

Affected customers will be contacted with alternate travel options such as flying to LaGuardia and Newark Liberty daily from six Canadian cities.

Aviation experts say the jet fuel crisis is getting serious and airlines will have to consolidate their routes.

Some are already passing on fuel price increases to their customers.

U.S.-Canada Trade Minister Dominic LeBlanc says the ruling upholds Ottawa's stance that the tariffs are unjustified.

However, LeBlanc also acknowledged that the free trade agreement between Canada, the U.S.

and Mexico is up for review later this year.

Canadian experts warn that the win for Canada could be minor and that more trade disruptions could be in the works.

The Canadian Chamber of Commerce says the president could use new, blunter mechanisms to reassert trade pressure.

Canada's largest private sector union also says Canadian jobs remain at severe risk and that workers could face more challenges.

The ruling does not affect tariffs on Canadian steel, aluminum, autos and lumber.
