The appeals court determined that Havana Docks held only a concession to operate the piers, not full ownership of the confiscated property, which had expired.
The 2022 ruling was landmark as it marked the first application of the Title III provision of the Helms-Burton Act since its suspension by previous presidents.
Appeals court reversed the 2022 ruling stating Havana Docks' interest in the property had expired before the cruises' operations to Cuba began in 2016.
Cruise companies expressed satisfaction with the appellate court's ruling, thanking the court for its thorough consideration while Carnival opted not to comment on pending litigation.
