Changes to Itinerary This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to visit a country that has been inaccessible to Americans for a long time. Specific inclusions of our itinerary are dependent on outside factors and host availability; therefore, there may be changes to the original itinerary but will uphold the same level of interest and be of equal relevance. Things work differently in Cuba and some activities may become unavailable for a number of different reasons. Therefore, flexibility and an open mind are key in having the best possible experience. Cuba Hotels Air Journey promises the use of the best available hotels all over the world, but hotels of this caliber are rarely found in Cuba. The island has limited resources, and although changes are being made, power outages are not uncommon, airconditioning may not always work properly and plumbing pressure may pose a problem. Be assured that Air Journey believes that the hotels featured on this program are the very best accommodations available clean, comfortable and with a friendly staff. Page 5 of 6
