Sunrise Airways launches historic direct flights between Cap-Haïtien and Boston

Haitian airline Sunrise Airways has inaugurated a new direct route connecting Cap-Haïtien (CAP) and Boston (BOS), marking the first-ever nonstop air link between the northern Haitian city and the United States. The inaugural flight represents a milestone for Haiti’s aviation sector and strengthens ties between the country and Haitian communities across the Northeastern U.S.

The new route is part of Sunrise Airways’ broader strategy to enhance connectivity with the Haitian diaspora while supporting the economic growth of Cap-Haïtien and the northern region of Haiti.

“This inaugural flight is more than a new route — it is a bridge,” said Gary Stone, CEO of Sunrise Airways. “A bridge between Cap-Haïtien and the diaspora that has kept Haiti alive far from home. Sunrise Airways is proud to be the airline that builds this connection.”

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.
