Location
Cap Haitien, Haiti
Cap Haitien International Airport (IATA: CAP, ICAO: MTCH) is the second-largest airport in Haiti, serving the country's second-largest city on the northern coast. It provides an important alternative entry point to the more congested Toussaint Louverture International Airport in Port-au-Prince. The airport has historically served regional and international charter flights, connecting Cap Haitien to destinations in the United States, the Dominican Republic, and other Caribbean nations. It plays a significant economic role for the northern region of Haiti, supporting tourism to nearby historic sites such as the Citadelle Laferrière and Sans-Souci Palace. Infrastructure at the airport is modest, with limited facilities reflecting Haiti's broader development challenges. Expansion and modernization efforts have been discussed over the years to accommodate growing demand and improve safety standards.
