Hi JC.
Of course you can make a humanitarian flight from where ever you think it makes sense to Port Au Prince.
Sometimes I hate it if real life interfere with simulation. If you have a closer look at the Cargo Dispatch for January there is already a UN-Charter flight from Amman to Port Au Prince, but this flight was requested of course long before one would know what might happen there in the future. Meaning the flight was created in December 2009.
I am registered on Aircargo-Worldindex as I sometimes pick up loads from there and adopt them for the Cargo Dispatches. The UN-Charter is one of these flights!
Today I received an e-mail from Aircrago-Worldindex about this request:
