In addition, the FAA has restricted the use of Haitian airspace at altitudes below 10,000 feet (approximately 3 km).

The incident occurred on Monday, when a Spirit Airlines plane flying from Miami to the Haitian capital of Port-au-Prince was shot at. The aircraft was then diverted to the Dominican Republic. One of the crew members was lightly injured, but there were no injuries among the passengers.
