This is terrible news for us. The two main alternatives - Air France via Paris and Air Europa via Madrid - were already much more expensive than Iberia. I dread to think what fares will be like next summer.
one: air berlin is not cheap. i am looking for a ticket to visit family in september and it's over 1200 dollars.
two: condor? i am looking at their website now and i cannot see any departure point in DR.
three: any of this cheap crap like jetair does not serve me well. i need to fly with one airline only for more security (delays and cancellations).
Prices will likely come down before September.
Usually, 90 days before travel is the best time to buy...... too far ahead of time means more $$$$
You meet people on jetair flights to Brussels who catch a fast train to places in Germany and Switzerland. This can take less time than a connecting flight and they reach a point very near their destination. Travelling by train is good for the environment.

The main reason why Iberia closes this destinations (HAV and SDQ) is high prices for services in DR, VAT 16% for fuel and high taxes. The airline will increase flights to Miami, Mexico, Rio de Janeiro and Santiago de Chile. More than 5 million dollars paid only in 2012 as 16% VAT for fuel. Local government should realize that they already killed aviation industry with those imposible taxes.
