The amount also represents an increase of 145 percent compared to the same period last year, when 116,004 Americans traveled to the Caribbean island during that period.
Statistics show that 166,455 Cubans living in America visited the archipelago until the end of May, for a 45 percent growth compared to the same stage of 2016, when 114,391 of them came.
The opening last August of the regular flights of ten American airlines, and the growth of the arrivals of cruises facilitated that flow of travelers.
