Member's Home Forums General Discussion International Flying - General Topics Update: Changes to Cuban Overflight Permits

The Cuban Civil Aviation department has advised that they are proceeding with the requirement for an Overflight Permit for aircraft that fly along G765 and UG765 inside the Cuban Flight Information Region (FIR).

While they are in the process of notifying the necessary departments and ATC authorities in neighboring countries, they have yet to define a definitive date when aircraft without a valid Overflight Permit will be denied access into Cuban Airspace.

Operators are urged to prepare for this requirement by obtaining Cuban Overflight Permits when planning to fly along G765 or UG765 to avoid costly and unexpected delays due to being denied entry into the Cuban FIR if the requirement is suddenly enforced.
