Cap-Haïtien airport traffic triples to 22,000 passengers a month

The Cap-Haïtien international airport is undergoing a significant increase in activity, according to Le Nouvelliste. Called upon to help maintain the continuity of national air traffic in a difficult context for the Port-au-Prince airport, the northern facility now handles roughly three times as many passengers as before and records four times as many movements. Data communicated to the outlet indicate about 22,000 passengers per month, up from 7,000 previously. The number of aircraft movements has risen from some 300 to around 1,200. The shift positions Cap-Haïtien as a key node for domestic and international connectivity while operations at the capital's Toussaint Louverture airport remain constrained. Le Nouvelliste notes related developments, including a modernization plan presented by the National Airport Authority (AAN) and the launch of the digital iKAT system at the Cap-Haïtien airport. The report does not specify the exact period over which the traffic increases were measured. The figures were attributed to data provided to Le Nouvelliste and could not be independently verified beyond that source.
