HOW LOW CAN CUBA GO?
The communist island is low on everything, not just tourism. Cuba is running on empty, reflecting a deepening energy and economic crisis where critical fuel shortages are crippling transport, electricity, tourism, and basic services, driven in large part by cuts in oil supplies and long-term economic pressures.
Meanwhile, Cuba’s entry rules are particularly complex for certain passport holders. Some travelers cannot enter purely for tourism and must fall under specific permitted categories. Documentation requirements differ based on nationality, and special travel cards may be issued instead of standard tourist permits. Visitors must clearly declare the purpose of their trip, with some reasons subject to additional review. Long-standing political factors continue to shape Cuba’s entry system
