[Robert Corbett <bcorbett@netcom.com>]

From: George DeTellis Jr <jr@newmissions.org>


During the 1980's there were 3 U.S. airlines serving Haiti.  American,
Eastern, & Pan Am.  Eastern & Pan Am went bankrupt leaving American with a
monopoly position as the only U.S. carrier with a full network of flights
across North America.

Currently United airlines is code-sharing flights with ALM.  Air France flys
from Miami and Air Canada from Montreal.

American Airlines has 90% of the flights in the Caribbean.  Delta has
started flights to the Caribbean from there Atlanta hub, but not service to
Haiti.
