The Dominican airline Arajet continues to climb the ranks in Latin America’s aviation market.

International Relevance in Tourism
The Ministry of Tourism ranked Arajet as the fifth most important airline worldwide for transporting tourists to the Dominican Republic, underscoring its strategic role in boosting national tourism.
Top-Performing Routes
Among Arajet’s busiest routes in the first half of the year were Medellín, Bogotá, Miami, Buenos Aires, Mexico City, and Lima—all key cities in the region and strategic hubs for continental connectivity.
Sustainable Growth Projections
Victor Pacheco, CEO and founder of Arajet, expressed satisfaction with the results and emphasized that this growth is part of a clear strategy: “We are intensely focused on turning the Dominican Republic into a logistical hub that can contribute to the country’s tourism and trade development, enhancing its competitiveness in the region.”
In line with this vision, Arajet plans to sustain this growth by adding new routes to Newark, Miami, and San Juan. Starting in the last quarter of the year, the airline will also offer connections from the Dominican Republic to Orlando, Boston, and Chicago in the United States, as well as Córdoba in Argentina.
