Bush Administration policies cut Cuban travel by more than half
Wednesday, December 22nd, 2004From Rich Perelman at CigarCyclopedia:
Reports from the U.S. Department of State indicate that the Bush Administration’s policy against travel to Cuba is working as intended.
A dramatic reduction of 57.4% was reported in seats reserved for charter flights to Cuba since the new regulations became active in July: only 50,588 seats have been booked while during the same period in 2003, 118,938 seats were reserved. This does not measure the impact of travel to Cuba from third-country carriers, such as from the Bahamas, Canada and Mexico, but it is clear that the trend is downward.
Reservations for travel in December are down by 67% from last year.
