Product Details & Size Guide
Show your interest in a distinctive chapter of Puerto Rican aviation with this Fina Air heavy knit quarter-zip sweatshirt. Founded by Lazaro Canto in 2003, the airline was named for his mother and planned charter flights linking San Juan and Mayagüez with destinations in the Dominican Republic. Its history includes regional Saab 340 aircraft and larger Caribbean expansion plans that were never realized. This piece connects everyday wear with the story of a short-lived carrier and suits airline-history collectors and aviation enthusiasts.
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.
