Security and passport control
When you arrive in Havana, expect longer waiting times at immigration counters (approximately 60-90 minutes).
Pre-departure security checks are standard and queues last up to 20 minutes.
Longer queues may be at check-in, as most airlines do not allow online check-in on departure from Havana.
Transfer between flights
Terminal 3 is equipped with the ability to transfer without leaving the transit area.
However, this is only possible if you already have a boarding pass for a connecting flight and your baggage is checked through to your final destination.
You will be subject to security check on transfer, but not passport control. Terminal 3 is small and therefore transfers in Havana are very straightforward and quick (usually within 30 minutes).
Otherwise, you must go through immigration control, including purchasing a tourist card and checking in again.
