Four cruise lines were ordered to pay millions for operating Cuba cruises out of a ‘trafficked’ port.
Carnival, MSC, Royal Caribbean and Norwegian were ordered by a US federal judge to pay over $400 million.
The port was seized from American owners during the Cuban revolution.
They operated Cuba cruises during the Obama Administration when the embargo was relaxed.
US District Judge Beth Bloom ruled cruise lines committed ‘trafficking acts’ by using Havana Docks and committed ‘prohibited tourism.’
