Cap-Haïtien–Newark: Sunrise Airways Expands Its Network Despite Persistent Passenger Complaints

Despite recurring criticism of its service, Sunrise Airways is pressing ahead with its expansion, announcing a new route between Cap-Haïtien and Newark in the United States.

Starting June 1, 2026, a weekly flight will link northern Haiti directly to Newark Liberty International Airport, the main gateway for the large Haitian community in the New York and New Jersey area.

The expansion comes, however, amid numerous complaints from travelers, who regularly denounce delays, a lack of assistance and unsatisfactory travel conditions.

While several observers welcome the new destination, others believe the airline should first focus on improving the reliability and quality of its service before expanding further internationally.
