Landing in where???? You can book flights to Haiti still 😂
I guess trump was tight Haiti is a sh1t hole
Still under Kamala rule, she wants more migrants before Trump starts
Trump affect
How?
School system failure *effect
@@Reynaga2012 I agree, they don’t want their people shipped back from the USA. Anna In Ohio

@@dcal954 how?
Knowing the history of Haiti, it’s sad it’s come to this.
The history of a nation that is a symbol of slavery abolition failed miserably to apply the rule of law and get on the road prosperity.
What’s sad is it’s come to the U.S.
The real history is that they were cowards from the start. They refused to fight France when France threaten to invade them and instead chose to be in financial slavery for generations instead of fighting for a true independence like every other country has done.
@@Mannyvz295the did fight and won!! Witchcraft well voodoo
@@Mannyvz295 Country was wayyyyy better under France, r u kidding me???
There are still flights to and from Haiti?
No
and yet we are gonna deport hard workers back there smh
What dummy is going to Haiti? More ransoms American tax payers will have to pay
even Haitian hate Spirit Airlines😅😅
Thank the Clinton’s for what Haiti has become.
spirit charges extra for a bullet-free flight
For an extra $50 you can choose a seats directly above our bullet-proof cargo bins. For $200, you get a flack jacket and complimentary helmet
# they we’re destroying haiti and bringing foreign forces to their soil # haitians are upsetting for that ,, kenyans and jamaicans are illegally occupied haiti teritorry it’s against haiti constitution,,,,,,,
Why cap haitien it happened in Port au Prince.
# haiti is an independant country ,, and will never becoming other country territory ,,, all desision for haiti must come from haitians ,to lead their country according to haiti constitution,,,,,
No invade other independent places
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Yes… but that aint working out to well, is it. Maybe yall need some american peacekeepers
The US needs to stop meddling in Haitian politics stop installing puppet governments. Who will not fight the gangs just so they can stay in government plundering the government coffers. Haiti has forces that can fight but these puppet leaders will not use them.
That’s just crazyyyy
The fired prime minister was a Clinton operative. He prefers negotiating with gangs paying them bribes to stay low we can see as soon as that guy left the gangs are returning to their old ways.
We’re All in Bizarro world and it’s gonna get much worse before it’ll get better .
When they said Florida, I thought, that makes since.
Since when?
Sense… the word you’re looking for is sense.
@@westrim😂
since Kamala lost that election?
Why would anyone want to go there
They still got to the middle east and Russia
@@patriciar31d84 those places are Disneyland compared to Haiti
@@kdidsmy sentiments, exactly
The US is full of Haitians dude, they want to go visit their families.
There they shoot at planes here they eat the dogs!
Why do they fly to Haiti?
Money?
@@BSdetected Money over safety, I guess.
@@le_encirclement absolutely nothing new about that…. Safety first is a corporate slogan to make an impression. My experience is more “ time is money”
Wow
Happens all the time now, we just don’t hear about it unless it’s some place the republitards make political manure of it.
Xenophobic bigots
Why are they even flying there??? Cannot wait 4 Trump to put a stop to it!
wouldn’t hold my breath, Trump is 99% talk and marketing for himself and 1% actual changes
@@OnlineSupportTeamamen. Thank you for the reminder to keep in your prayers. Yeah trump is on it😂😂😂😂
@@OnlineSupportTeam All i know was that when Trump was president i could afford gas, groceries and a place to live now everything is 10x the price
@@lucadellaquila6889 That’s fair but you know what causes inflation right? When trump printed all that money to give out to people during Covid, that is the cause of inflation. You can’t just print money, it makes everything worth less aka inflation.
And these people were brought in by Kamel.
News Anchor should quit that stupid job and go make big bucks doing Cher impersonations.
Lololololol
Never have never will travel SPIRIT…….cheaper is not always better
Could have happened to any airline….not just spirit.
I am Haitian but the Americans are guilty of what is happening in Haiti because all the weapons come from the United States. For a long time they have been manipulating Haitian politicians, they should be ashamed
That pilot handled it very well and didn’t panic 😮 everyone on that flight might need counseling ptsd vibes 😢prayers for everyone involved and the innocent citizens of Haiti 🙏🙏
Haiti is Trump country! 🤣🤣😂😂
@@–Daniel–*The Eastern 1/3 of the Island*
Spirit needs bulletproof planes
Everyone hates going to Haiti, hence the name
Who in their right mind is flying from here to Haiti?
I still see Youtubers there
@@more6326 Johnny Somali should go there.
Many haitians.
People going back home and some on business. Sad and dangerous.
My thought exactly. Jeese.
The party airline is upping their game.
I am VERY surprised a U.S. airline flies to Haiti.
I’m not sure many (if any) fly to Venezuela.
I suppose youll be even more surprised that 9 airlines fly US / Haiti… and about 7 fly US/ Ven.
There’s still a us embassy in Haiti
@@BSdetected
A *US* airline. Meaning a U.S. based airline.
I’m not talking about airlines like Latam, Copa, Caribbean or other international airlines that fly from the U.S. to those places.
The only travels are from families. There is no tourism in Haiti. Tbh half the island is garbage.
No is half is the third part of the hispaniola
…Actually there is some tourism from cruise ships. Carnival Cruise Line’s private island is Half Moon Cay, while Royal Caribbean has a private resort in Haiti called Labadee in the north part of the country. I certainly would not take that cruise for any reason!!!
That’s not gang violence. That’s a coupe de etat happening.
Already happened.
😂😂
How do you know this is fake/manufactured news: Haiti has presidents and not print ministers. Do better!
Thanks Trump
@3:14 CORRECTION: It was Pre.Jovenel who was assassinated in Haiti
not prime minister who was assassinated in 2021 at least give him some respect 🙏🏾
Para-milit*ry t*rrorist : When is the world going to start calling them for what they are and act accordingly?
— this are not gangs.
They are not asking for money or political power they just want to create chaos — they are t*rrorist, finance by crimin*l organization, politicians and Haitian businessman mostly from Florida. (where they get the firep*wer)
Then these same Haitians and the few visitors will demand the US tax payers to rescue them from kidnapping or to bring their bodies back to the US…
Just wondering how many automatic weapons factories are there in Haiti?
Haiti is a ghost of itself… most of the gangs are in U.S. now thanks to the Democrats
I feel so bad for the Dominicans, they have to deal with this predators all day, everyday. Such a disgrace.
No way! Airplane shot on short final to an airport in a country without a real government and ruled by armed gangs! Whodathunkit!
Make Haiti a No Fly to zone.
Why on earth would anyone want to go to Haiti?
People who are Haitian visiting family. Business matters. Should I go on…stupid ssa question. Smh😒
Raise your hand if you are totally out of touch.🙄
A lot of foreigners still living in haiti
Can we just send in the rangers and end this already, like fr we sent billions protecting a country where half the people wanna be Russian, but can’t protect a island from thugs so close to mainland….
YOU NATIONS NEED TO STOP LYING ABOUT THAT THE GUNFIRED CAME FROM THE GANGS. THE OLIGARCHS IS BEHIND THE SHOOTING OF THE PLANE.. A LOT OF CRIME ARE BEING COMMITTING IN HAITI BY PRESIDENT ABINADER AND THE OLIGARCHS TO STEAL THE RESOURCES OF THE ISLAND. STOP WITH THE LIES. WHAT INTEREST DO THE GANGS HAVE TO STOP HAITIAN FROM COMING TO THEIR OWN LAND
OMG! Why do we have anything to do with Haiti ?
Please save the people and children
It’s all lies. It was the police that did it.
How did a gang member get so close to an airport that make that make sense
The lucky spirit didn’t shoot back
Why would people want to fly to Haiti , if Harris wasn’t in office All airlines would of been ban to fly into Haiti
spirit airlines is way shady
