After the cancellations, on Saturday, of most of the flights between the US and the Island, the situation has normalized and all the airports of the national territory are operating, affirmed the Cuban Airports and Airport Services Company SA (Ecasa). . “Recovery actions are carried out in the facilities after the passage of Hurricane Ian”, published Granma.
in the same post It is assured that an “affectation in the technological systems that support the passenger check-in service” caused delays the day before, although, he adds, that “most of the planned flights were carried out” and the canceled operations were due to ” decision of the airlines”, which provided attention to passengers.
These cancellations generated discomfort among travelers and their relatives, who expressed their discontent through social networks and did not seem convinced by Ecasa’s explanations. For his part, one of the regime’s spokesmen on Cuban Television, Humberto López, denounced an alleged “campaign of fake news from Miami, that the airports in Cuba were closed, when in fact all the operations were slow but they worked.

Arturo Mesa, a friend of one of those affected by these cancellations, for which he blames Havana, commented that the airlines did not provide any support to travelers who arrived at the Miami and Fort Lauderdale airports to travel to Cuba. On Facebook he specified that her acquaintance, who “came with 140 pounds of donations, animal medicines and some donations for Viñales”, had to return to her house with all the load. The companies “did not pay for her hotel or transportation” even though she lives far from Miami.
Mesa pointed out to Humberto López: “The lack of information is forgiven. The lie is despicable and has very short legs.”
Many users of Cuban airports pointed out that the power generation plants in the terminals were insufficient: “they give power for 20 or 30 minutes and it goes away again.”
According to the publication of Granmathis Sunday “the check-up system is already restored, providing the service with total normality. The rest of the systems have not been affected in any way,” concludes the official report.
