“Given the abrupt refusal of aviation fuel supply companies in the Argentine Republic to provide service to the Cubana de Aviación airline and its flights authorized by the National Administration of Civil Aviation of Argentina (ANAC), invoking provisions of the blockade measures of United States against Cuba,” says the company’s statement.
For this reason, it is reported that Cubana flights “that were supposed to depart between April 23 and 24 were canceled and the refusal extends to other airlines contracted by the company to try to transfer the affected passengers, thereby preventing compliance with the commitments assumed by the airline with these.
At this time, it is trying to obtain seats on other airlines that arrive in Cuba, to transport passengers who were scheduled to return to their country on April 24, who will be protected to the extent that there are seats available on other airlines that carry out flights. flights from Cuba to Argentina.
In another order, you are informed that passengers who have not started the trip may receive 100% of the refund for their air ticket.
Finally, they point out that the actions of Argentine suppliers are beyond the control of Cubana de Aviación.
