Several employees of travel agencies in Miami have confirmed to <strong>OnCuba<\/strong> that they have started seeing an increase in flight reservations to the island in this now recovered modality.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeople are now flying through a Mexican airline that has opened a daily flight from M\u00e9rida (in the state of Yucat\u00e1n, near the western coast of Cuba) to Havana that is cheaper. It takes a little time because they have to travel to Mexico, but it really isn&#8217;t that much. The process can take about three hours between flights and the stopover at the airport,\u201d explains Mar\u00eda Gonz\u00e1lez, an agency employee.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Mexican airline is <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.interjet.com\/en-us\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Interjet<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">, which until two weeks ago had two weekly flights between <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/maps.apple.com\/place?address=Aeropuerto%20Internacional%20Manuel%20Crescencio%20Rej%C3%B3n%2C%20Calle%2017%2C%20Internacional%2C%2097295%20M%C3%A9rida%2C%20YUC%2C%20M%C3%A9xico&amp;auid=9764068873029314815&amp;ll=20.933644835274613%2C-89.66307163238525&amp;q=Manuel%20Crescencio%20Rej%C3%B3n%20International%20Airport\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">M\u00e9rida<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> and Havana and has now increased them to one daily. Passengers fly in any U.S. or Mexican airline to M\u00e9rida and they transfer to Interjet. According to the airline&#8217;s executive, H\u00e9ctor Navarrete Mu\u00f1oz, the new flights will give a new dynamism to the M\u00e9rida air terminal that until now only had connections with the island through flights that came from Mexico City, but even so receives some 2 million passengers per year in the Caribbean circuits.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe estimate that this will increase the number of passengers by about 2,000 per week, who can enjoy low-cost fares. Since we started to assess Cuba in 2009, we have transported almost 23,000 people,\u201d he said.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And low cost is the key to this situation. When the Trump administration suspended flights to several Cuban provinces until further notice and concentrated them in Havana, as of December 10, many possible travelers were frightened by a wave of rumors that the prices of charter companies based in Miami were going to skyrocket as well as those of U.S. airlines that continue flying to the Cuban capital.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The rumor was set off when people started checking the websites of airlines and travel agencies and found that prices for the second half of December were extremely high. Actually, what many did not notice, perhaps because they had no way to compare them, is that these prices are common for the high season that coincides with Christmas and New Year&#8217;s Eve, according to several travel and tourism industry specialists.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If a flight to Havana from Miami was costing between 200 and 500 dollars, both through commercial airlines and charter flights, in the second week of December they can rise to more than 900 dollars and reach 1,500 or more. But the same happens, for example, on flights to South America or Europe, when prices double.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThe market has always been like this and this has two factors about which passengers often have no knowledge. Prices traditionally soar because there is greater demand. But also because airports increase taxes on ticket sales and the fees they charge airlines. Normally, after that stage, the high season ends and life returns to normal,\u201d says Roger Walter, a tourism industry analyst. That, he emphasizes, \u201calso happens with cruise ships.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The \u201cpanic\u201d was triggered when the Trump administration suspended flights and people rushed in search of tickets to spend Christmas and New Year\u2019s Eve in Cuba and discovered that the trip was too expensive and that, in addition, it is even more expensive if they need to travel inside the country from Havana. It is in this context when airlines such as Interjet appear, having bet on the low-cost market and finding a gold mine in the South Florida market through the M\u00e9rida airport.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWhat we are doing is, always with the help of the client, to look for a flight in which two prices are combined. The Miami-M\u00e9rida one and the M\u00e9rida-Havana one. And what we are finding is that it is cheaper than the high season from Miami to Havana. And people buy it,\u201d explains Gonz\u00e1lez.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">His agency deals with both commercial and charter airlines which is why it is in a good position to speculate about the future. \u201cFor the time being I don\u2019t think, I don\u2019t see it that way even commercially speaking, prices are going to go up in relation to what they were before the high season. Everything indicates that they will remain the same,\u201d he says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">There can always be imponderables, which almost always are not generated by airlines, but that airports can raise the costs of taxes and use of their facilities. But, \u201cso far,\u201d there is nothing new in that regard, he says.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Flying through third countries is always a nuisance, but it can be a cheap alternative for those who have not yet organized a flight to Cuba and want to spend Christmas and New Year\u2019s Eve there.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The reduction of flights between the United States and Cuba resulted in airlines from other countries starting to meet those needs mainly focused on the Cuban community in South Florida eager to spend Christmas and New Year\u2019s Eve with their families.
