    DR reopens to tourism

    As snowbirds, Most Canadians buy travel insurance. I'm US & I buy travel insurance. And most of us buy it for the medical coverage.

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    Kind of makes you wonder why all the social distancing, etc in the airports when you're going to sit shoulder to shoulder with the guy they just made you stand 6' away from. Don't get me wrong, I'm all for masks & social distancing, but these airlines make it a joke.

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    we had a June 6th last month & they didn't cancel until June 1. If you call customer service they say they only know what we know, but someone has to have a better idea about it.

    We're on American Sdq-MIA July 9th. However, we also had a flight for last month, which they didn't cancel until 6 days before. I think we'll all know when we see what happens July 1.

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    A couple of the airlines are blocking middle seats, but I know for a fact American Airlines is not. We're scheduled to fly from SDQ to MIA July 9th. Was going to go July 7th but it's their first flight out of here (maybe) & it was booked solid, including the middle seats. It's really crazy...

    We're booked on a July 9th AA flight OUT of SDQ. July 7, their first flight is totally booked. It's coming from Miami, so wonder where all those people are planning to go. If they're truly allowing in tourists, you'd think there would be some plan.

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    One other thing. If that is not a nonstop flight, they won't necessarily cancel bc the first leg is in the US & it will go. You need to see about the other part. That happened to my granddaughter back in March. She was supposed to be coming here (DR), but they had closed the airport to...

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    That is the problem. We've been in the DR as snowbirds since mid Dec & were supposed to leave for Chicago April 2. Our flight canceled & only notified us 2 days prior. Luckily, we're retired & in a nice condo, so it's not a big deal. There have been some ferry flights to New York, but then...

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    I take exception to that. If there was a way, other than the overstay payment at the airport, we would gladly do it. However, After being detained at the airport for 2 hours a couple of years ago when we arrived & not ever really knowing why (don't speak spanish), someone told us somewhat...

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    Our American Airlines Flight on June 6th SDQ - Miami - Chicago has had the SDQ to Miami cancelled. Saw it online last night, but do you think AA has had the courtesy to let me know yet, NO. And they haven't cancelled the Miami - Chicago part of my ticket yet. I wonder how they think I'm...

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    Just spoke with American airlines & they're still saying my June 6th flight is leaving from the DR. I asked why it isn't showing anywhere anymore & she said it is totally booked & so are all the others until June 15th. I find that really hard to believe. She said they don't have any set...

    I actually just looked on Kayak.com for flights leaving Santo Domingo & the earliest that is now showing is June 6th. Wonder what day that will disappear? And as far as anything coming from the US, well, that's a joke too.

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    We have a flight booked for June 6th to Miami. However, I booked it after the lockdown date was announced but before the Pres came out with his 4 phases of reopening. I've spoken to American Airlines several times about our flight, & they swear it's still on the books as a go, but I honestly...

    This is for anyone who had a flight booked out of the Dominican Republic in the last 6 weeks. How far in advance did they cancel & how did they notify you. Thanks

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    We have flights booked on American Airlines for June 6th. I just spoke to one of their reps & she says it's still scheduled to fly. However, based on the fact that airports supposedly won't be open til July 1, I'm highly doubtful this will go. worse part is, we probably won't know until a day...

    When will DR open for International travel??????

    I agree. I didn't come to this forum for your arguing about nothing concerned with International Travel. I only care about the travel part of it. Why don't you start your own forum to insult each other
