Q – My friends are booking a nice cruise that includes a stop in Cuba. But they tell me I will have to complete a personal affidavit to get approved by the Cuban government to go on this trip.
A – The Cuban government is in a state of confusion in terms of handling the large numbers of Americans who wish to visit their country as it opens up. The required affidavit is a simple one page document. We would certainly advise you to fill it out – although we are not really enouraging travel to Cuba as a cruise day-tripper. The Cuban culture, food, and nightlife is worth at least a week of your time. We are recommending touring Cuba – not stopping by via cruise ship for a few hours.
