Cruises to Cuba

http://money.cnn.com/2016/03/22/news/carnival-cruise-fathom-cuba/index.html

Cruise giant Carnival announced Monday that Cuban authorities will allow it to operate cruises to the country starting in May.
Carnival will sail its 704-passenger MV Adonia on trips from Miami to the island nation, marking the first time in 50 years that cruise passengers will travel from the United States to Cuba. The ship will be operated by Carnival's Fathom brand.
The cruise itinerary includes three ports of call: Havanna, Cienfuegos and Santiago de Cuba. Prices for the seven-day cruise start at $1,800 per person, excluding Cuban visas and other costs.

My understanding is this is not a traditional cruise. The Adonia is not one of Carnival's normal fleet. This cruise is a "social impact" cruise. Passengers will be working & helping in Cuba like a volunteer trip.

Carnival does not have any traditional cruises planned there yet.

Edited because I cannot spell.
