U.S. Bans All Flights To Cuba — Except Those That Land In Havana

The US announced a new policy banning flights to nine Cuban airports, excluding Havana, starting in December. This decision, requested by Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, aims to increase economic pressure on Cuba for its repression and support of Venezuela's Nicolas Maduro. Cuban Foreign Affairs Minister Bruno Rodriguez condemned the move, highlighting its impact on US-Cuba relations. Airlines like American Airlines and JetBlue plan to comply with the restrictions, with a 45-day grace period to adjust their operations.
