Via The Flight Deal, you can fly from San Francisco, Washington, DC, Newark, Chicago, and Houston, to Havana, Cuba, in coach for ~$257 with Delta!
I found a flight from San Francisco on December 2, 2016, returning from Havana, Cuba, on December 9, 2016, for ~$257. And a flight between Houston and Havana, Cuba, leaving February 5, 2017, and returning February 12, 2017, for ~$261.
This fare is valid for travel from December 2016 through April 2017, excluding Christmas and New Years.
Fly to Havana, Cuba, for Under $300 on Delta and Experience This Amazing Country Like Emily Did!
Here are the details. And how to search for deals from your city!
How to Book It
Link: The Flight Deal
Link: Delta
You can check The Flight Deal for how to book. Or go directly to Delta’s website to search for dates.
And don’t forget to check out Emily’s Trip Report about Cuba! You’ll find lots of great information there regarding visa requirements, cash planning, booking hotel rooms, and more.
Delta Tip
You can cancel a Delta booking by midnight the day after you bought your ticket and get a full refund. So you can purchase a ticket, then cancel it if you quickly change your mind.
Hotel Information
If you book a sale flight, remember there are lots of ways to get cheap or free hotel rooms with points from credit card bonuses and spending.
Remember, you can transfer flexible points like Chase Ultimate Rewards or American Express Membership Rewards to different hotel programs.
Note: If you prefer to book paid stays, check out discount sites like Orbitz, Expedia, or TravelPony for deals. But remember you won’t get stay credits or points (and might not have your elite status recognized!).
Airbnb is another terrific way to save money on accommodations, especially for longer stays. Here are some tips on how to negotiate a better Airbnb price, and how to find a safe and comfortable Airbnb.
