Argentina-Cuba air bridge to grow to eight weekly flights

Responding to fast-rising Argentinean tourism in Cuba, Aerolineas
Argentinas and Cubana de Aviación are planning to grow Argentina-Cuba
routes to eight weekly flights this winter.

Visitors from Argentina set a record in the first half of 2011, with
61,000 arrivals.

Cuban officials visiting the Feria Internacional de Turismo de América
Latina (FIT 2011) in Buenos Aires offered Argentinean tour operators and
travel agents a "total guarantee" for the success of the air
connections, Prensa Latina reported.

The two airlines will connect Buenos Aires with various destinations in
Cuba, including Havana, Varadero, Cayo Largo, Cayo Coco, Santa Clara and
Holguín, between January and April 2012.

In addition, other Latin American airlines, including Copa,
Avianca-TACA, Andes and LAN Perú offer Cuba connections from Buenos
Aires via other South American airports and Panama.
