Following the finalization in December of a Dominican-U.S. open skies agreement, Arajet said it would begin flying to Miami, New York and San Juan, Puerto Rico, in 2025. Flights between SDQ and MIami will kick off April 11 and be flown 4X-weekly. Service between SDQ and San Juan, also to be operated 4X-weekly, is scheduled to commence June 4.

The Dominican Republic-based airline will begin service between Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) and Santo Domingo’s Las Americas International Airport (SDQ) on June 16.

It's about to get easier—and cheaper—for American travelers to fly to the Caribbean from New York City and Miami thanks to new flight routes rolling out this spring and summer.

Arajet will commence direct flights from the Dominican Republic to New York in June 2025 using its fleet of Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft.

The Dominican Republic is being used as an air hub and hub for airlines for travelers from South America and other regions who use Arajet at Santo Domingo (SDQ) and Punta Cana (PUJ) airports. This was stated by Elizabeth Giraldo,

Dominican carrier Arajet will begin Newark-Santo Domingo service on June 16, flying the route four times per week. It will be one of five U.S. routes that Arajet launches this spring. The discount airline will also fly from Miami to Santo Domingo (April 11) and Punta Cana (June 2) and from San Juan to Santo Domingo (June 4) and Punta Cana (June 6).

Dominican Republic flag carrier Arajet (DM) has expanded its U.S. presence by launching flights from New York Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to Las Américas Santo Domingo Airport (SDQ). The new route will start operations on June 16.
