Product Details & Size Guide
Celebrate a brief chapter in Puerto Rican aviation with this Fina Air embroidered dad cap hat. Founded in 2003, the airline announced charter service connecting San Juan and Mayagüez with six Dominican Republic destinations. Its plans later included broader Caribbean service and jet aircraft, but those ambitions were not realized. Fina Air’s short history and regional-airline story give this cap appeal for aviation enthusiasts, airline memorabilia collectors, and travelers drawn to the history of island connections.
Fina Air was a Puerto Rico-based airline established in 2003 by founder and chief executive Lazaro Canto. The company was named for his mother, Josefina Canto, and operated charter flights to the Dominican Republic. In a June 7, 2003 announcement, management said flights connecting San Juan and Mayagüez with six Dominican Republic destinations would begin July 15; the start date was later moved to October 2. The airline planned expansion to other Caribbean countries and the acquisition of jet aircraft by 2005, but those plans were not realized. Fina Air operated from Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport in San Juan, Rafael Hernández Airport in Aguadilla, and Eugenio María de Hostos Airport in Mayagüez, and also rented aircraft to U.S. immigration services for return flights from the Dominican Republic. Its three Saab 340 aircraft were later acquired by a leasing company and operated by RegionsAir as Continental Connection from Cleveland. A proposed purchase of two DC-9-30 aircraft was cancelled. Following flight cancellations in July and August 2005, the company arranged customer compensation in the Dominican Republic. After Canto's death, the business was associated with unpaid debts, lawsuits, and unhappy investors. Fina Air has ceased operations.
