If you fly BA, I believe that JMC operate a BA liveried B777.

Flies twice a week I think to HAV from LGW

Cuba worth a visit. Try visiting Bahia de Cochon and see where it all happened.

Nice country.

BA/JMC 777's have just stopped flying there about a month back. JMC must be doing it on the Charter front. Only Cubana (Take your life in your hands), and Air Jamaica go direct to Havana now, on the scheduled front :(

Cubana - last I heard - was operated by a French operation. DC10 in nice condition. Don't confuse with all those old Russian aircraft with n'er but a big ADF to guide them.

Cubana still managed to crash one of the AOM DC10's last year in Quito, Ecuador. I think they use Cuban crews, hence the problem... Poor training, etc,etc.....

:rolleyes: :confused:

That was actually a Tupolev Tu154M. The DC10 was Guatemala City.

Thanks for the Avilla bit, keep forgetting it.

I imagine you could get a flight from the JMC brochure, or maybe even from Thomas Cook Travel Agents. You can also try www.jmc.com (http://www.jmc.com) :D
