"The situation is resolved. Everything has returned to normal after a communication issue between the air navigation services of Miami and Haiti that halted a flight and led to the return of a Sunrise flight that had already left the USA," officials from OFNAC and TPTC told the Nouvelliste on Tuesday, October 27, 2026.

"Today, the FAA control center in Miami was making a change to its communication system with different Caribbean countries. At the moment of the switch, some countries lost communication with the control center. For example, Jamaica and Haiti. During the time coordination could not be made between the Miami center and the various countries, flights destined for those countries were grounded. If they were in flight, they were required to return to the point of departure. This is what happened to one of the Sunrise flights this afternoon," explained a source from OFNAC.
