José Martí International Airport in Havana scheduled two overnight closures for October 2026. The first was to begin on Monday night, October 12, and continue into the early hours of Tuesday, October 13. The second was scheduled for the same hours between Monday, October 19, and Tuesday, October 20.

On both dates, the closure was scheduled from 7:00 p.m. to 2:40 a.m. local Cuban time. Each interval covered seven hours and 40 minutes. Aeronautical notices identified the restrictions as NOTAM A3592/26 and A3593/26, issued on October 9.

The documents use the term “AD CLSD” to indicate that the airfield would remain closed during the stated periods. They do not specify the reason or identify particular affected flights. They also do not establish a direct connection between the closures and the reported difficulties with fuel availability.

Passengers scheduled to travel during those hours should check their itineraries with their airlines and confirm flight status before going to the terminal. Aeronautical notices may be amended, replaced or canceled.
