True. What I would do if I wanted to bring a cuban cigar into the US or on a flight in the US is remove the band, as there isn't really a "cuban" test for tobacco. Some cigar stores in Canada actually will give you faux bands for your cigars, I've heard
of course not that I would ever do this as it would be illegal and wrong and stuff
