Sunwing Vacations Group Indefinitely Suspends All Cuba Operations
If you have a Cuba vacation booked through Sunwing Vacations, WestJet Vacations, or WestJet Vacations Québec — this affects you and you need to act now.
Sunwing Vacations Group has announced the indefinite suspension of all Cuba operations, effective immediately. This includes all bookings under Sunwing Vacations, WestJet Vacations, and WestJet Vacations Québec.
The Official Statement from Sunwing
Following a review of our Cuba program and the current operating environment, Sunwing Vacations Group (including Sunwing Vacations, WestJet Vacations, and WestJet Vacations Québec) has made the difficult decision to indefinitely suspend all Cuba operations until further notice.
This decision was not made lightly. Cuba has long been a valued destination for Canadian guests, and we recognize the important role tourism plays in supporting local communities, tourism workers, and industry partners across the island. We remain hopeful for the destination’s recovery and future success and will continue to monitor developments closely alongside our partners and suppliers in Cuba.
What This Means If You Have a Cuba Booking
Travel advisors will be contacted directly for all impacted bookings. Guests will be offered the following options:
- Rebooking to an alternative destination within the Sunwing network; or
- Cancellation with a full refund
For guests booked as part of a group, Group Sales Representatives will be in touch directly to review available options.
