- Reacting to the news yesterday, United Airlines (NASDAQ:UAL) announced that it planned to seek approval to begin regular service to Cuba from Newark and Houston. Other airlines expressed similar interest.
- What remains unclear is how such an agreement might comply with the 54-year-old U.S. trade embargo, which can only be lifted by Congress and generally prohibits American companies from doing business in Cuba.
