Cuba Flight Safety

Texas Senator Marco Rubio has caught the Obama administration in a lie when he saying that he has failed to follow through on a commitment to place an air marshal on all fights going to and from Cuba. The Transportation Security Administration has claimed that there has not been an air marshall on any flights but on May 17 the Department of Homeland Security said that any flights without an air marshall on board could not proceed. Rubio has asked the white house to provide documents that gave approval that flights could leave and enter this country without an air marshall on board. The TSA had no comment on this act, but airlines seem to be okay with the absence of an air marshall. American Airlines, who conduct most of the flights to Cuba, says that they do not use any airport that doesn't have the highest standards of safety.
