its only a 2 hr bus ride. The buses are comfortable like the greyhound buses back home.
The SD airports (2) are not exactly located in the center of the city and the santiago airport is located in the middle of no-where. So the flying option makes no sense at all.

It's meant to be a gift to a friend who has never flown before- I figured a short ride would be nice... he lives in Boca Chica so not having to deal with the chaos of Santo Domingo traffic was a plus.....
