Travel Today with Peter Greenberg--Newark Liberty International Airport

December 07, 2016

This week, Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes from Newark Liberty International Airport, which is launching United’s first nonstop service between Newark and Havana, Cuba.  United executive Stephen Morrissey, who is in charge of regulatory policy, will explain how Cuba-U.S. negotiations produced the Newark to Havana route, and the challenges the airline faced in the process. Greg Geronemus, Co-CEO of smarTours, talks about the changing nature of Cuban tourism for Americans, the infrastructure challenges (hotel rooms, transportation, and even bathrooms) for what is expected to be an explosion of U.S. travelers. Laura Redman from Condé Nast Traveler discusses the rapid changes on the ground, in the air, and on the water in the once-forbidden destination. There’s all of this and more as Travel Today with Peter Greenberg comes from the Newark Liberty International Airport.
