How to travel to Cuba from US

Special info for US citizens

December 17th 2014 opened a new era for the US-Cuba relationship. President Obama will move as soon as January 2015 to defang the 54-year-old American trade embargo against Cuba, using broad executive power to defy critics in Congress and lift restrictions on travel, commerce and financial activities. Treasury and Commerce Department officials are moving quickly to tear down regulatory barriers to Americans’ ability to travel, conduct financial dealings and export products to Cuba, officials said. The Office of Foreign Assets Control at the Treasury Department will scrap a measure that requires people who are already eligible for travel to Cuba to receive special permission from the government for trips such as those involving family visits, professional, religious or cultural programs and humanitarian projects.
