Travel – ZED Airlines opens a domestic route Port-au-Prince / Cap

Haitian commercial aviation firm ZED Airlines S.A. has launched a scheduled domestic air service connecting the capital city Port-au-Prince and the northern coastal city Cap-Haitien, with operations officially kicking off on Friday, August 14, 2026. The carrier is operating the route using a 160-seat Boeing 737-400 jet, secured through a strategic partnership with Ecuador-based Aeroregional.

The first departure from Port-au-Prince’s Toussaint Louverture International Airport completed its journey without issue, a moment company leaders describe as a key milestone for expanding the carrier’s footprint in Haiti’s domestic travel market. Moving forward, the route will operate on a fixed weekly schedule, with flights offered every Tuesday and Friday to accommodate both business and leisure traveler demand.

To cater to varying traveler needs, ZED Airlines has rolled out two distinct one-way fare tiers for the new service. The Standard Ticket is priced at $222.99 USD, and includes access to one 10-kilogram carry-on bag and one 23-kilogram checked bag per passenger. For travelers requiring extra luggage allowance, the Flex Ticket is available for $250.00 USD, offering the same 10-kilogram carry-on allocation plus two separate 23-kilogram checked bags.

In a statement announcing the launch, a ZED Airlines spokesperson explained the motivation behind the new route, noting that the service was developed to address rising travel demand between the two major Haitian cities. Beyond just adding more connectivity, the carrier says the new route will deliver increased seating capacity and a more comfortable travel experience for domestic passengers than what is currently available on the corridor.
