HAVANA, Cuba, Jan 27 (acn) Spain´s Iberia Airlines will resume flights between Madrid and Havana on June 1 after a two-year interruption due to an economic slump and deep restructuring process.
Iberia had interrupted its flights to Cuba, the Dominican Republic, Puerto Rico and Uruguay following a reported lack of benefits, but last September it resumed flights to Montevideo and Uruguay after reducing operational costs and purchasing A 330 Airbus planes, which provide less fuel consumption.
The director of Iberia´s Communications Department Juan Cierco told reporters that they expect to be successful in their Business class due to the economic prospects of Cuba.
Meanwhile, Cuban ambassador to Spain Eugenio Martinez said the resumption of flights was big news since the Madrid-Havana flights have constituted a historic route that linked Cuba and Europe for years.
In resuming flights we think that many Europeans will travel with Iberia to Havana, particularly Italian, French, German and British citizens.
