Or you can check travel agencies in any 4* or 5* hotel should be useful too... Cheers, Sale GZ/HK (gmail.com\|sasa.cv)

I have contacted Jacky and he has supplied a quote but he can't supply a tourist card that is required for the trip. I'm hoping that another travel agent can do this. Thanks.

Hi Ellyse,

I'm sorry I should have explained. I was looking into a ticket from China to Cuba and Cuba requires every visitor to complete a tourist card before they can enter the country. For most western countries, this card is provided by travel agents or the airlines.

Since I posted on July 2 I have learned that Chinese nationals must buy the card through one of the Cuban Consulates in China.
Without the card they can not board their flight out of the country.
