We recommend that you use Google Flights to find dates to fly, then book through an online travel agency, such as Orbitz or Expedia, which allows you to cancel flights without penalty by 11pm Eastern Time within one day of booking. However, if you’re using the American Express Platinum Card, you’ll need to book directly with the airline or through Amex Travel portal to get 5x MR points. Remember: Fares may disappear quickly, so book right away and take advantage of Orbitz or Expedia’s courtesy cancellation if you’re unable to get the time away from work or family.JetBlue’s fourth sale for its A December to Adventure promo are low fares from the US to Cuba, starting at just $54 each way. Tickets are available from Fort Lauderdale (FLL), New York (NYC) or Orlando (MCO) to Camaguey (CMW), Havana (HAV), Holguin (HOG) and Santa Clara (SNU). And if you pay with JetBlue points, you will get an even better value, as in the case of Fort Lauderdale to Camaguey, which is just 100 points + $31 in fees, which is an effective price of $32 based on TPG’s valuations.
