iTeam Haiti - Staging in Port au Prince

Friends of Haiti,

The iTeam arrives on three flights today. We arrive, claim checked bags, then shuttle a mile to the domestic terminal via tap-tap, otherwise recognized as an overworked small pickup truck. Think 1987 Toyota.

Tortug'air will fly us on 19 seat turbo props to Port de Paix. This 45 minute flight gets us within 8 miles, a one hour tap-tap ride to the mission.

We won't be all in until sometime in the afternoon, with checked bags following within a day.

The second flight, from Miami is on the ground in PaP.
