JetBlue on Thursday morning announced it would cancel 1,280 flights through Jan. 13.

The airline said the cancellations are an effort to avoid last-minute changes for passengers, as it expects an increase in COVID-19 infections among flight crews. The schedule cuts will affect nearly 10% of JetBlue’s daily schedules.
