NEW YORK - Low-fare airline JetBlue Airways will no longer pay commissions to travel agents. <br>
<br>
The company says the decision will take effect Thursday. <br>
<br>
The discount carrier is following in the footsteps of several other airlines which announced last month that they would eliminate fees for tickets booked in the United States, Canada and U-S territories. <br>

Chief executive David Needleman says as a low-fare carrier, Jet Blue needs to keep its cost structure as low as possible.
