Here we go again.....
Under U.S. law, it is legal to GO to Cuba. But you are not allowed to spend
any money there, and there's the rub. And that said, the US doesn't make it
easy for you to get there. It's not impossible, because you can go through a
foreign country (Canada, Jamaica, Mexico, etc), but if it strikes you to do
that, take plenty of cash (no US backed credits cards, etc.), cover your
tracks (don't walk off a plane from Havana and immediately go to a U.S.
flight), and be willing to deal with the circumstances if the US government
does find out. Quite a few Americans do it every year, but it has become
more difficult under the current administration.
Unrequested opinion: It's stupid. This pissing contest has gone on 35 years
too long.
