FAA Extends Haiti Flight Ban Until March | Charlotte News

U.S. flights into Haiti’s capital, Port-au-Prince, are under renewed restrictions as the FAA extends its airspace ban until March—now limiting civilian planes to altitudes above 10,000 feet amid escalating gang violence. Triggered by a November 2025 shooting incident on a Spirit Airlines plane, the ban has been repeatedly pushed back, cutting off critical travel and aid routes. With gangs controlling roughly 70% of the city and central regions, U.N.-backed forces and local police are struggling to regain control. The FAA’s continued extension underscores that security remains dangerously unstable, prioritizing passenger safety over all else.
