Airlines in Europe and the US are expecting increased traffic across the Atlantic with the loosening of COVID-19 restrictions for foreign travelers entering the US. 

The Spanish LCC will be able to launch new routes from the airport in November.

The airline concedes its plan to operate 30% of pre-pandemic capacity in the final three months of 2021 will not be possible.

The long-haul services will now start in January; American still plans to launch a New York JFK-Delhi route on Oct. 31. 

Although global capacity reduced by nearly 600,000 seats, there were some brighter spots as Canada reopened its borders to vaccinated travelers.

The move follows the European Council's Aug. 30 recommendation to remove several countries from the 'safe' travel list.

A number of US carriers are trimming capacity plans this fall.

The carrier is the only scheduled passenger airline to offer flights to the US territory in the South Pacific.
