Irish holidaymakers warned against going to Cuba

Cuba is in the midst of an energy crisis, which has affected transportation, hospitals, schools, tourism and the production of food.

Irish holidaymakers heading to Cuba have been told to contact their travel agents “immediately” after the Department of Foreign Affairs (DFA) changed their travel advice for the country.

The second-highest level of warning has been issued for the country, with Irish travellers being told to “Avoid Non-Essential Travel”.
