The Cap-Haïtien–Boston link serves one of the largest Haitian communities in the United States. For hundreds of thousands of Haitians and Haitian Americans living in Greater Boston and along the Northeast Corridor, the nonstop service eliminates the need for connections through Port-au-Prince or other hubs, providing a convenient, direct link to northern Haiti.
The weekly flights operate as follows:
Cap-Haïtien to Boston: Tuesdays, aboard a 180-seat Airbus A320.
Boston to Cap-Haïtien: Wednesdays, returning on the same aircraft.
This new service not only eases travel for diaspora communities but also opens new opportunities for trade, tourism, and cultural exchange between Cap-Haïtien and the United States.
