Toussaint Louverture International Airport (IATA: PAPICAO: MTPP) is an international airport located in Port-au-Prince, Haiti. Developed with grant money from the American government, the airport opened in 1965 as Francois Duvalier International Airport, named after Haitian president Francois "Papa Doc" Duvalier (1957-1971). Following the resignation of Duvalier's son and successor Jean Claude Duvalier in 1986, the airport was renamed Port-au-Prince International, before being renamed again as Toussaint Louverture International in 2003. The airport serves as Haiti's main international gateway.
