| Cruising hot for Cuba

Carnival Corp cruise brand
fathom is now on the hunt for
humanitarian projects in Cuba to
offer its passengers after receiving
rights to visit the Caribbean island.
Week-long itineraries to the
line’s second destination after the
Dominican Republic are priced
from US$2,990pp excluding taxes,
port charges & government fees.
Fathom president Tara Russell
said the line’s ethos remained the
same – to provide travellers with
an opportunity to get involved in
social endeavours in Cuba for the
betterment of local communities.
She said fathom had identified
11 possible ports in Cuba to
which the 700-pax MV Adonia
could travel, with an existing
terminal in place at Havana and
tender access possible elsewhere.
