Haiti is an impoverished nation that is not only small in its landmass but also in its economic status. The country was once a haven for tourists who wished to enjoy a good vacation without spending a great deal on lavishness. However, the recent earthquakes of 2010 have ripped apart the country and left many cities and towns devastated. It has not even been a year since airlines have resumed their flights to Haiti but the country still has got a lot of recovery left.
This earthquake took the precious lives of over tens of thousands of people and in the wake of the earthquake the already dwindling economy suffered a massive hit. However, the people of Haiti have not lost their charming influence as they continue to welcome tourists with smiling faces and open arms. On your visit to Haiti you should be surprised to see thousands of broken down houses and destitute lining the streets as the country is yet not able to fully get back on its feet. The distinction of being labeled as a failed state and a media favorite for shoving blame on, the country has always maintained a steady influx of tourists.
Whether it is the tax haven nature of the country or its propensity of the people to battle through all kinds of odds, the country has maintained its one shining image of being an excellent alternative to the Caribbean islands. Flights into the country are scheduled from all major destinations of the world for every day at convenient timings that shall take you to the only international airport in the country.
