Russia and Cuba resume direct flights between the capitals

The reception of the Russian plane was attended by the island’s Minister of Tourism Juan Carlos Garcia Granda, Russian Ambassador to Cuba Victor Koronelli, Russian Consul General in Havana Nana Mgeladze, as well as other senior officials of the civil aviation and tourism industry in Cuba. This is reported by
Prensa Latina, a partner of TV BRICS.

The head of the Russian diplomatic mission in Cuba recalled that although air traffic has been suspended in recent years, there are currently three weekly direct flights from Moscow to the resort of Varadero, and now citizens will be able to make a direct route Moscow-Havana.

Ambassador Coronelli emphasised that the flights are in great demand from both countries.

Garcia Granda, head of Cuban tourism, noted that Russian tourism has played a fundamental role in the industry for several years.

He added that Russia was the fourth tourist market in Cuba for several years, but has recently risen to third place, so it is important to continue to increase the number of flights from this country to develop tourism.
