America 2 Cuba?

Question

I heard that if your an American you can;t fly directly to Cuba was told that you fly to Canada and then back down to cube is this true?

Answer 1

well, if you go from europe, you usually do it via montreal

Answer 2

There are direct flights between the US and Cuba - but the only people that can use them are those with specific authority from the US government (e.g. Cubans with US visas, or US citizens with OFAC licences).

Ordinary US citizens wanting to visit Cuba have to go via a third country such as Canada or Mexico.

Answer 3

Yes, or I think you can go though mexico.  I had this conversation on my honeymoon with many people who has done this.

Answer 4

Yes It's Some Embargo We Have With Them.

Answer 5

It's true. You cannot fly to Cuba from the US because of trade embargos. It's also illegal for an American to enter/do business with Cubans because of those same embargos set since the cold war.
