Thanks Michael..I will look on Tuesday and also check out Spirit again. But it is 80 miles from Santiago to Santo Domingo someone said.
It goes fast, on a metro bus for $200 pesos ($7).
The spirit airlines tickets are good both ways (same prices). I see they are up for March. They will fall again soon. Demand & fuel prices, I imagine.
The aa.com tickets...you must leave on the next W, TH, or FR and return on the following M, T, or Wed. So you can get a week out of that. If you have specific dates you need to go...it is always a "wait & see" with American, as to which locales will be on their international getaways list for the coming week.
American has recently canceled any nonstop service from Fort Lauderdale, so you will have to deal with MIA. A real mess.
Good luck!
