## Description

Despite the "International" tag, Antoine-Simon Airport (CYA) is in practice a regional gateway for Haiti's southern peninsula, with Sunrise Airways shuttling passengers to Port-au-Prince rather than loading freighters. The contrast with the region's export profile is striking: the plains around Les Cayes grow much of the world's vetiver, a high-value perfume oil that travels by air — but consolidated through Toussaint Louverture (PAP), not here. CYA has no dedicated cargo terminal or bonded warehousing, so forwarders treat it as a feeder, trucking shipments to PAP's customs facilities run by the Administration Générale des Douanes. For sea freight, the ports of Les Cayes and Port-au-Prince handle the bulk volumes.
