    shame you dont to go in June its like £460 with air france from london to havana

    i'm tempted now at that price


    KLM is more or less Air France these days, and June prices are cheap because it's the rainy season.


    According to Lonely Planet, May, June and September are Low seasons, with resorts reducing service or just shutdown. Hurricanes are likely June to November.


    Oddly enough, October is shoulder season.


    November to March, then July and August are High seasons: and yet, there were two hurricanes during the period in which Virgin Atlantic had air miles sales, circa November 2015. I think they saw the hurricanes coming, or the travellers saw them coming, so bookings were down, because I could have bought the ticket and gone next day if I wanted to.

    Hi Mike. I sent you an e-mail earlier today. Hope you received it?
  • Nicaragua is a great low-cost destination that isn't yet on the "beaten path" for the majority of travelers but is getting more and more popular each year. I look forward to your visit.
  • If you are going to Cuba then rememeber you need a letter from your travel insurer specifically stating you have travel insurance for Cuba.

    As far as I can remember this is the only country which has this procedure.

    I think that only applies to visitors from the USA, since insurers there are forced to exclude Cuba. Health insurance is a requirement for all visitors: people who arrive without insurance are forced to buy a basic and very cheap health insurance that is offered at the airport. It is therefore good to carry proof of insurance.
