Hola EGNH...

Quite an achievement to have started your PPL and already fly your cross country navigation practice in A-330s...
Well, nowadays, I cannot follow-up with you kids, your ATPLs in freezers -
And your modular or integrated training programs.

As far as your route from Manchester to Cuba...
Depends on how the Atlantic tracks as far as the North Atlantic...
You will be in an ETOPS machine, and they dont want you to swim.

Initially you will be routing over Ireland...
Then the water, and water, and water (quite boring)...
Sitting on the RH side, after some 4 hrs flight, you might catch a glimpse of Newfoundland.
If you look on LH side at that point, that is where the Titanic got a bad leak.
Then some 2 hours later, maybe on your LH side, you might see Bermuda.
Beware after that point - The "Bermuda Triangle" -
2 more hours, a bunch of small islands, that will be the Bahamas.
Far to your right, the coast of Florida. Then... Cuba.

Dont get lost. Check the batteries of your GPS.
Enjoy Cuba, nice place to be a tourist.

Happy contrails
