MADRID, Spain. – Iberojet Airlines will start to offer flights between Madrid and Santiago de Cuba starting November 11, 2022. With one flight per week, the itinerary includes no stops and will operate year-round.
Tickets are already available on Iberojet ‘s website and through all official sales channels.
The airline will provide also the possibility of combining the airports of Santiago de Cuba for arrivals and departures from the island.
When making the announcement, the company stated that this was an opportunity for tourists to get to know Santiago de Cuba, a city that is often relegated due to its location in the easternmost region of Cuba, far from the capital.
With this new itinerary to Santiago de Cuba, Iberojet will continue to provide three weekly flights: two from Madrid to Havana, and one to Santiago de Cuba.
The tourism advisor to Cuba’s embassies in Spain and Portugal, Niurka Pérez Denis, pointed out the importance of this new itinerary for strengthening the tourism sector in Cuba.
“It will provide the Spanish market a magnificent opportunity to get to know Cuba from the perspective of one of its most interesting cities in terms of history, culture and heritage,” stated Pérez Denis.
