Round trip air from Vancouver, Canada to Havana, Cuba on dates surrounding the concert is only $383 US..
Seeing the Stones with thousands who have never seen them before- priceless.

Checked this morning and calculated at todays exchange rate (39%!) and it is indeed true. Also, if you have RFID Drivers license, there is no need for passport when you drive to Vancouver and back.. Need passport for Cuba flight only .. don't necessarily need US permission
Use Google flights for the fares.. one quoted was with 10 hr layover in Mexico..
You can also book Casa Particulares through the travel republic website (travelrepublic.co.uk). I booked one for 7 nights for £162 and the guy who owns it has arranged airport transfer for me as well for 25 Cuc (=$25). My daughter stayed in one a few years ago and it is definitely the preferred (and cheaper) option.Quote

Airbnb is the way to book casas particulares nowadays.
I've been to Cuba before, like 4 years ago, and it's easy to move around with the network of people knowing people with accommodations, cars, food.. mind you all governed, but once you are in the system, it's very easy. So my advice. Book a casa particulare, don't even go hotels, experience Cuba, if you want to go somewhere else? no problem, just ask your host.
Can't wait! See you there.

Did someone find a place in an Havana's Casa Particular to stay ? I contacted more than 23 differents places during the last two days plus mostly the hotels in Havana. No rooms available for March 19th until March 23th. Only outside Havana.

I tried airbnb, but they are telling me that I can't have access to Cuba booking because I live in Canada. Never happened to me...
You are right !!!Quote

I don't think they would be short of sponsors willing to put in the big bucks to provide a free show for Cubans and hopefully us fans from abroad .
The worldwide publicity of being part of a huge gig in Plaza de la Revolución and may be having it televised either live or quite soon after the show would be great for Pepsi ,Coke ,Adidas and countless multi-national companies .
I feel sure it's going to happen and keep looking at RS.com as it could be any day now, or any week in the next month or so it's announced.
I just hope I am right.
