I've cruised three times to Havana with Thomson/Marella and never had to pay for a visa I am going again twice in April on Discovery 2 and there is no mention of visas on my cruise confirmation

Are you sure this doesn't apply to holidays to Cuba?

Hi there

I have called thomson/Marella cruise again today and received another answer that I do need to purchase a visa, but was told to call another number at Marella and guess what - the receptionist wan't 100% sure and would call me back !! Why can't Marella get their hat together and give people the correct information ? its so unnecessarily confusing.

Hi There we are are the Thomson/Marella Discovery 2 that is visiting Cuba/Havana in February 2017 and having spent a lot of time researching Visa requirements for Cuba, it appears you do need to organise your own Visa. Thomson did provide free Visa's up and till Sep 2016, but have changed their policy now. Thomson charge over £50 for a visa, but if you apply to cubavisa.com the cost is £24.
