Spotting Locations

The main attraction of this airport is the opportunity to see the planes of the Cuban airline Cubana – the Russian Il-96 and Tu-204. It is not easy to see them flying, but many planes are stored at the airport. In addition, about 30 airlines from the USA, Latin America and Russia fly to Havana.

Taking photos from the terminal is about as bad as in Varadero. However, there is an excellent spot for shooting on the perimeter of the airport, but you should not go there without prior notification of the authorities. Spotting in Cuba is not prohibited, but it is not something common either. To access the spot, it is better to ask for help from the local spotting community.
