We flew down to Puerto Plata with Air Transat and were very pleased with our flight... however, when trying to make reservations for a flight home, we didn't have much luck. We had to do it all by phone to POP since we were in Cabaretes so that didn't help either. The office in POP doesn't know the availability for their flights (which only go on Wednesdays and Saturdays) until the Tuesday of that week! We were trying to get one going out on a Saturday, and were told to call back Tuesday morning... so we did, they still didn't know, told us to call back at 3... so we did, STILL didn't know, told us to call back Monday morning. It ended up they didn't have their availabiltiy until about 2:00 on Wednesday (2 hours before the flight that day left for anyone trying to get on Wednesday's) and then they were sold out. What I don't understand is how they don't know the availability until that week... wouldn't they know from the week before if the plane was full or not by how many people flew down? It truly confuses me.... maybe someone will have an answer for me so I can give it up!
