- Why United States citizens have to find non-hotel accommodations
- How issues with the power grid will impact travel
- Why farm visits are so intriguing in Cuba (especially for cigar fans)
- How the beach scene differs in Cuba from other destinations
- Some of the top sights and experiences in Havana and Trinidad
