Miami International Airport
Miami, US · America/New_York
Miami International is the gateway between the United States and the Caribbean, and for Haiti it is the hub that matters most: the busiest Cap-Haïtien route, the connecting point for American's flights from New York, Boston, Atlanta and Philadelphia, and the airport closest to Little Haiti and North Miami. Broward and Miami-Dade counties together hold the largest Haitian population in the country.
Arriving at Miami
International arrivals clear immigration in the North or South Terminal. Miami is one of the slowest US airports for visitor passports in the afternoon, when the Caribbean and South American banks land together; Mobile Passport Control (free app) and Global Entry cut the wait to minutes for eligible travelers. Connecting passengers collect bags after customs and re-check them at the transfer desk before returning through TSA.
The MIA Mover connects the terminals to the Rental Car Center and Miami Central Station, where Metrorail (Orange Line) runs downtown in 15 minutes and Tri-Rail heads north to Fort Lauderdale and West Palm Beach. Rideshare pickup is on the departures level; a car to Little Haiti or North Miami is 20 to 30 minutes.
