I am pretty sure that there are no direct flights (other than charters), although somebody may prove me wrong.

When I fly to London from SD, I take American Air to Maimi, then Virgin to London (Heathrow).

Take it in stages - stay one night in SD and you're welcome and stay with us here in PC. That will make up for the ordeal. :D

I think Thos Cook. Thomson fly to various UK cities from POP and once a week from Samana. All charter though. BA schedule from PUJ.

All schedule from Santo Domingo are via Paris, Madrid.

Those are your options I am afraid to say with 99% certainty. Also as I previously posted, there is a route through the USA. Perhaps a Visa issue makes this route moot.

I fly to Europe every month, if you find any other options I would love to hear them.

america no problem for miesposo but i do not have american visa.
i know that airberlin flies from puerto plata to germany - they stop in jamaica or cuba for a brief moment and then fly to dusseldorf or munich (exact ruta depends on the time of the week).
i may look into that as well...
i wish i could fly home once a month but i would probably end as a junkie: i take travel sickness pills by buckets just to survive the journey.
