Airlines Halt Haiti Flights After Gunfire Hits Planes
TL;DR Summary
Two U.S. airlines, Spirit and JetBlue, reported their planes were hit by gunfire while landing in Port-au-Prince, Haiti, amid ongoing gang violence and political instability. A Spirit Airlines flight was diverted to the Dominican Republic after sustaining damage, and a JetBlue plane was found to have been struck by a bullet post-flight. The incidents coincide with the swearing-in of a new Haitian prime minister and have led to the suspension of flights to and from the capital's airport.
