Flying To Cuba via the USA

Due to the current political situation, trying to arrange flights between the USA & Cuba is fraught with difficulty and risks and, as a result, we strongly advise clients to avoid them at this time.

It is also important to note that the Tourist Cards (visa) issued in the UK for entry to Cuba are not valid for travel from the USA to Cuba.
