Dominican Republic unveils new ultra-low cost airline
A new airline has been introduced as the Dominican Republic’s ultra-low cost carrier.
Arajet, headquartered in Santo Domingo, plans to make air travel accessible to travelers to and from the Dominican Republican, across the Caribbean and North and South America.
“Arajet will have the full support of the Dominican government, as they seek to grow tourism into the country and enable Dominicans living abroad to visit their home with low-priced fares,” said Luis Rodolfo Abinader Corona, President of the Dominican Republic.
Arajet is expected to start operations from Las Americas Airport of Santo Domingo with flights to the Caribbean islands and Central America this spring.
It expects to add flights later this year to key North American markets, including New York, Boston, Miami, and Chicago.
About 2.2 million people of Dominican descent live in the US.
“The Dominican Republican and the wider Caribbean region is underserved by low-cost airlines and passengers deserve a more affordable way to travel in our market. We believe Arajet is well-positioned to transform the Santo Domingo Airport into a modern, new hub for destination and connecting traffic,” said founder and Executive Officer Victor Pacheco
Arajet will adopt the ultra-low-cost carrier model (ULCC), offering low fares, and will be led by Pacheco and Mike Powell, who formerly served as the Chief Financial Officer of Wizz Air.
