“Due to the current conditions of the Cuban tourism market and the ongoing operational limitations affecting the destination, including logistical, infrastructure, and supply challenges, Blue Diamond Resorts Cuba has decided to cease its operations and the use of its brands in Cuba, effective immediately,” according to Sudameria.

The company says the move includes all activities related to …

Canadian airlines including Air Canada, WestJet and Transat have been suspending service to Cuba for months now. Sudameria says future reservations, inquiries, and coordination efforts for the impacted resorts will be handled directly by the respective hotel owners and/or the corresponding local operating entities.

The U.S. administration has been threatening military action in Cuba ever since ousting Venezuela’s president Nicolás Maduro earlier this year, then ordering an energy blockade that choked off fuel shipments to Cuba. That led to severe blackouts, food shortages and an economic collapse across the island.

Even more sanctions have been imposed on the Cuban government in recent days, and the U.S. has again raised the spectre of military intervention in Cuba.

The Canadian government’s travel advisory level for Cuba remains at orange (avoid non-essential travel). Last week Global Affairs Canada warned that its ability to provide consular services in Cuba may become limited if the situation on the island deteriorates further.

The Havana Times reports that the impacted properties will be administered by Cuba’s Gaviota. It also reports that Iberostar is under pressure to exit Cuba as well.
