Santo Domingo to Sosua
bigbird said:
All depends what part of SD?
Colonial Zone/Malecon hotels to BC is around 30-45min if the traffic is good.
I have done it a thousand times, so if you want to also know the location of each pot hole, I can help
Add another 15-20mins if your driving from Naco/Bella Vista etc.
If you take the bus, dont forget about:
You also have to figure taxi time/money/effort from airport to bus station in SD and from bus station to hotel/house in Sosua.

Fly
[Beleive me, the only way to go is fly. Air SantoDomingo or Air Domca fly several times daily for around 75US each way. The flight is under an hour. It's a haul going by car or bus, save yourself some money and get there in a third the time. I have done this several times, both from SDQ and PUJQUOTE=bigbird]I am able to buy a reduced flight this weekend, 6/11/05, to Santo Domingo. How far is SDQ from Sosua? What would it cost to catch a cab to Sosua?[/QUOTE]

Fly....it's Cheaper....
I can't find anything for Air SD or Domca, I would be surprised if they had a web. Just wing it, you don,t need resv. You won't get from Boca Chica to Sosua in an hour, but you will get from SDQ to POP...cab from there, minimul. I'm sure the airport has the info you need, but I found that the flight are never full and go every couple of hours. You won't have a problem.

can see alot. They will do whatever it takes to accomodate. Go Air SanoDomingo.Call "takeoff" at 809-552-1333. This number is for AirSantoDomingo in Punta Cana, it's all I could find in my receipts, but am sure they can give you the info you need of the tel# for SDQ
Air SantoDomingo seems to have a problem, claims their site is under construction, and probably will be for who knows how long. Google search will give you www.aerodomca.com but I think flights are limited to POP Wait till you get there, both airports have flighs to POP, you will not to wait. I have done this several times, last in March. 18 passenger plane was full so they put us on a small twin 6 passengers, awesome flight, fly at about 3000ft youdrdick said:

To the best of my knowledge
there are no longer regularly scheduled flights between Santo Domingo (either Las Americas or Herrera airport) and POP.
I would say for the most part that if your destination is the North Coast, you are best to fly to POP, even if it is a couple hundred dollars more. It's true the bus is cheap, but the cab to and from the bus station is not, and the round trip from SDQ takes up a full day of your vacation. I would say the same thing about the after-midnight flights into STI. On the other hand, a flight into STI, arriving at a decent hour like the Delta or Continental Flights, isn't so bad, since you're only an hour and a half from Puerto Plata or Sosua by bus.

I think he is talking SDQ as in the Airport code so he is going to be right near Boca Chica if I am not mistaken.Robert said:All depends what part of SD?

Escott
STI or SDQ
ESCOTT...you are correct, but I don't understand her post here,says no flights from SantoDomingo to POP ?..then next par>you are best to fly into POP???????Aero Domca or Air SantoDomingo have regular daily flights, I beleive 2 a day to POP. I have done this several times from both airports in Santo Domingosweetdbt said:
What I meant was,
flying into SDQ when you want to go to the North coast, just to save a C-note or 2 on the airfare, is usually "penny wise and pound foolish" when you consider the time, expense and energy required to get from Las Americas to Sosua or Puerto Plata and back. You're better off spending a little more to fly directly into POP.
I'd be interested in knowing how long it has been since you flew from the capital to POP. I know they used to have scheduled flights, but to my knowledge, only charters now.
FYI, "she" is a "he"
