WASHINGTON, Nov 11 (Reuters) - JetBlue Airways ( JBLU )

said late on Monday it will extend a halt to all flights to and

from Haiti through Dec. 2 after damage from a bullet to a plane

returning from Port-au-Prince was discovered.

A Spirit Airlines ( SAVE ) flight destined for the Haitian

capital was struck by gunfire earlier on Monday, forcing it to

be diverted to the neighboring Dominican Republic. The earlier

incident had prompted JetBlue ( JBLU ) and American Airlines ( AAL ) to

cancel all flights through Thursday.

JetBlue ( JBLU ) said its Flight 935 arrived later on Monday in New

York without reporting any issues but a post-flight inspection

later identified that the aircraft's exterior had been struck by

a bullet.
