"CANCELLATIONS ANY TIME TICKET IS NON-REFUNDABLE IN CASE OF CANCEL"

So book fast, think within the next 24 hours, really.

What's the best metal to route this onto? Because:

IF THE FARE COMPONENT INCLUDES TRAVEL BETWEEN LAX AND NYC THEN THAT TRAVEL MUST BE ON ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING ANY AA FLIGHT OPERATED BY AA BUT NOT ON AIRBUS INDUSTRIE A321 (SHARKLETS) AIRCRAFT. AND IF THE FARE COMPONENT INCLUDES TRAVEL BETWEEN SFO AND NYC THEN THAT TRAVEL MUST BE ON ONE OR MORE OF THE FOLLOWING ANY AA FLIGHT OPERATED BY AA BUT NOT ON AIRBUS INDUSTRIE A321 (SHARKLETS) AIRCRAFT.

Would routing via LAX-MIA be an option? Don't they still have 1 flight daily with 3 class service on that route?

What about the restrictions on travel to cuba from US? Don't you have to fall into one of the 12 categories, specifically not tourism?

Great fare, not sure why there seems to be an assumption that it's a mistake fare since it's been well-reported that the airlines are not making any money at all from flights to Cuba.

And something tells me you don't want to run into a Cuban exile / 2nd generation immigration officer at MIA having done a day trip mileage run to Havana.

I'm also seeing one-ways pricing at ~£220 fwiw.

I entered Cuba on my UK passport in January with not so much as a blink from the border control. Ditto my friend (travelling on a US passport), who had no problem getting into HAV or back into MIA when we left. YMMV, obviously.

But I hear it's AA not the cubans who do not let people travelling on the tourist visa to check-in or board.

Routing Via LAX onto the 77W is available with a little bit of a long itin and few more $.

https://www.google.co.uk/flights/#se...=ONEWORLD;eo=e

440 TPs for a BAEC member. £0.97/TP seems a decent value.

Is it as simple to say 'I have an online blog and qualify under journalism' or will there be some need for proof?

May be dying as we speak. Now pricing in the $1500 range on the dates I'm considering.
