How do I travel from USA to Havana Cuba? |
Travel Info How do I travel from USA to Havana Cuba? Travel Tips Officially, certain people may be licensed to travel to Cuba. The actual law has to do that since there is a "trade embargo", we can not go as tourists and spend American $$$ there. The Office of Foreign Assets Control states journalists, official government business travelers, members of international organizations, academic professionals, and the like, can get these licenses. I had the chance to go with my school on a study abroad trip, which I had assumed to be legal cause it was academic in nature. So the answer is yes but read this first "The Regulations require that persons subject to U.S. jurisdiction be licensed to engage in any travel-related transactions related to travel to, from, and within Cuba. Transactions related to tourist travel are not licensable. This restriction includes tourist travel to Cuba from or through a third country such as Mexico or Canada. U.S. law enforcement authorities have increased enforcement of these regulations at U.S. airports and pre-clearance facilities in third countries. Travelers who fail to comply with Department of Treasury regulations will face civil penalties and criminal prosecution upon return to the United States."

You can't. It is against the law. If you do figure out a way by going through another country first, they will arrest you once you land on American soil and they see your passport. If you don't want to swim.. you must go via another country. Direct flights go from Canada, Mexico, Jamaica, and the Dominican Republic to name a few. http://www.state.gov/p/wha/rls/fs/34617.... |
