United States has banned all its flights entering Haiti.
The ban was lifted on Tuesday 12th November for a month following the incident where three jetliners approaching or departing were hit by gunfire.
The suspension came after an airplane arriving from Florida in Port-au-Prince was hit by gunfire and had to change the route to Dominican Republic.

During the strike, a flight attendant was injured.
Two plans that left Haitian capital on Monday 11th November 2024 were also struck by gunfire with single bullet holes detected.
Other gunshots were being fired in several neighborhoods of the capital.
Due to this, many schools and stores were shuttered as people feared more attacks by the powerful armed gangs.
They controlled 80 percent of the city even though the Kenyan military had been deployed.
United states of Tuesday called Haiti leaders and urged them to put personal interests aside and concentrate on getting the country back on its feet.
The nations have long been struggling with political stability, poverty, natural disasters and gang violence but it all deteriorated on end of February when armed gangs launched the attack in the capital with the aim of overthrowing the Prime Minister Aeriel Henry.
Even though Kenyan soldiers had been deployed in June, violence has continued to emerge in Haiti.
The gang leaders have increased their forces for the zones they control and placed gas cylinders and Molotov cocktail bombs ready to use against the police.
