History
The Jeremy airport was freshly renovated in 2020 to allow for bigger planes to land. The arrival and departure terminals were also renovated. There are talks that the runway is big enough to allow international flights to land directly in Jeremy. However, the Haitian authorities are working on filing the appropriate registration to list the runway as such. Such a change would allow for international flights to land directly to the Southern part of Haiti, bypassing the busy Capital, Port-au-Prince. The Southern Peninsula of Haiti is very beautiful with a lot of opportunity for beautiful landscape pictures, and contain some of the best looking natural white sand beaches.
