Thakin says the Cuban governments gives Wings preferential treatment. Imagine not only visiting the rolling floors of a cigar factory, but also sitting in the board room there, sipping choice cognac and smoking a Havana, conversing with the plant foreman and the Director of Habanos. The Canadian government guarantees an additional level of travel security by administering a travel fund, supported by a tax on Canadian travel industry revenues. We take care of everything from airport to airport hotels, three meals a day, transportation, tours, and driver and guide for the week. You must carry your passport, but the Cubans don't touch it.
Wings obtains a group visa.
Only American visitors who have licenses from the US government can bring back Cuban goods. Since you do not need a license to travel with us, you can NOT bring back cigars. I'm the guest host on their February Cigar Adventure. For those who love Cuba and her cigars, it promises to be memorable, and I hope to see you there.
