What time is it in Cuba right now?

From 05:00 UTC on the second Sunday of March to 05:00 UTC on the first Sunday of November, the time in Cuba is UTC - 4 hours. During the rest of the year the time in Cuba is UTC - 5 hours.Cuba Standard Time is the same as Eastern Standard Time (UTC - 5 hours), and Cuba Daylight Saving Time is the same as Eastern Daylight Saving Time (UTC - 4 hours). Also, Cuba has been beginning and ending Daylight Saving Time on the same dates as the United States, Canada, Bermuda and the Bahamas since fall 2012 (2nd Sun. of Mar. to 1st Sun. of Nov.). The only differences are that Cuba begins DST two hours earlier than New York, etc. and ends DST one hour earlier.


What is the time difference between Maryland and cuba?

There is usually no time difference between Maryland and Cuba. Eastern Standard Time = Cuba Standard Time, and Eastern Daylight Saving Time = Cuba Daylight Saving Time. There is only one week per year when Maryland is one hour ahead of Cuba: during the week of October 31 (because Cuba ends Daylight Saving Time on the last Sunday of October, and in Maryland it ends a week later).

How long does it take to fly to cuba from UK?

It depends on whether you take a plane or try to swim.One thing that complicates this is that the US government has ... let's call it an antagonistic relationship with the Cuban government. You're not going to find any scheduled flights directly from the US to Cuba. You will need to fly to some third country (Mexico or Canada being the most convenient... given that you're starting in New Hampshire, Toronto would probably be a good option). The US has just started the (probably long) process of normalizing relationships with Cuba, so in the future the embargo may be lifted, and you'll be able to fly directly. That should shorten the trip considerably.
