Dawn Airways, a Haitian-owned airline, introduced that it’ll resume operations and flight service to and from Port-au-Prince on Could 20.
All home flights will depart from Toussaint Louverture Worldwide Airport. Worldwide service to Panama, Saint Maarten, and Guadeloupe will regularly resume “pending the opening of airspace to the Dominican Republic.”
In March, Dawn Airways suspended its flights following an incident at Toussaint Louverture Worldwide Airport the place gunfire hit a aircraft making ready to depart for Cuba. The incident, orchestrated by gangs in Port-au-Prince, led all airways to cancel flights in Haiti.
A number of weeks later, Dawn Airways resumed flights between Miami and Cap-Haïtien regardless of continued safety dangers attributable to escalating gang violence in Port-au-Prince.
JetBlue and American Airways introduced earlier this month that they’d resume flights in Port-au-Prince in Could after a two-month hiatus. Nevertheless, in response to the Miami Herald, they’ve since delayed the resumption of their every day service.
“The protection and safety of our prospects and crew members is our prime precedence. On account of the latest civil unrest in Haiti, we have now canceled operations by means of Tuesday, June 4,” JetBlue spokesman Derek Dombrowski stated. “We proceed to observe the scenario and are working carefully with the U.S. embassy and our group in Haiti to find out subsequent steps.”
