Dominair, S.A. was a passenger regional airline based in Santiago de los Caballeros, Dominican Republic,[1] founded by Poppy Bermúdez.[2] that offered flights to Port-au-Prince, Haiti, until 2007. Before that, it was a popular airline with regular flights to San Juan, Puerto Rico, using two de Havilland Canada Dash 8. The airline is now defunct and previously only flew to Port-au-Prince and had a fleet composed of two leased L-410 Turbolet.[citation needed]
On 8 February 1989, Independent Air Flight 1851 crashed in the Azores while operating a charter for Dominair from Bergamo, Italy to the Dominican Republic with the loss of 145 lives.[3]
