A JetBlue Airways plane prepares to take off from the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, on Jan. 31, 2024. The carrier will reduce its departures from Los Angeles International Airport from about 34 a day to 24, focusing on profitable transcontinental routes that include its Mint business class cabin, according to a memo to staff, which was seen by CNBC. Cuts include service from Los Angeles to San Francisco; Seattle; Miami; Las Vegas; Reno, Nevada; and Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. Along with transcontinental flying, JetBlue said it will focus on "bread and butter" routes along the East Coast, and those serving Caribbean vacation destinations. JetBlue is charting its path as a stand-alone airline after a judge blocked its plan to purchase Spirit Airlines in January.

The price of Bitcoin hovered around $72,000 on Tuesday, extending a rally that has helped mint a new crop of crypto billionaires. The cryptocurrency has climbed by more than 50 percent since the Securities and Exchange Commission approved the first Bitcoin exchange traded funds in January, bringing a wave of mainstream investors into crypto trading. Coinbase, a Nasdaq-listed crypto exchange, has seen its stock surge alongside Bitcoin this year. It said in its suit that the agency has shirked its responsibility to write clear rules on how the industry should operate. A panel of judges agreed that the agency acted arbitrarily, a ruling that paved the way for the approval in January of new Bitcoin funds.

The Americans who live in Las Vegas know the city as a destination for the middle class: Valets and cocktail waitresses become homeowners. Lately though, Las Vegas — like much of the United States — has become more expensive. People from California and other expensive states are moving to Nevada, driving up home prices even further. Though they have dipped slightly over the past year, rents in Las Vegas are still roughly 35 percent higher than in December 2019, before the pandemic, according to data from Zillow.
