Hay rumores de que Song puede empezar operaciones hacia la REP. DOM para el mes de abril. Pero todo sigue en conversaciones entre el gobierno y funcionarios de Delta.


Vamos a ver si eso pasa y que tengan un buen low cost fare's.

 

[santobonao]

si song vuela a republica dominicana pronto va ser la primera ruta internacional.

 

[aviastar]

no creo que Song va a venir ahora en Abril a RD, no le va a dar tiempo. Ademas hace como 2 anos hay rumores que JetBlue viene a RD, da pena que RD esta llena de chismes y no pasan cosas que deben pasar.

 

[carlos]

indeed

 

[santobonao]

lets hope que el rumor sea verdad para song.

 

[Latino2002]

BUENO, DELTA SIGUE EXPLORANDO Y EN NEGOCIACIONES CON REP.DOM, E INCLUSO ESTARA BUSCANDO 4 PERSONAS PARA TRABAJAR LOCALMENTE EN RD.

YO ESTOY TRATANDO DE K ME ENVIEN TEMPORALMENTE A TRABAJAR SI SE ABRE LA RUTA.

JET BLUE NO TIENE K VER NADA CON DELTA/SONG.

TODAVIA NO SE QUE RUTAS VIAJARAN, TENGO K AVERIGUAR CON VENTA Y MERCADEO. INCLUSO REP DOM TENDRA UN TOLL FREE NUMBER PRONTO PARA PAX Y TRAVEL AGENCY.

SI TENGO MAS INFO LES DEJARE SABER.

 

[santobonao]

jetblue y delta no tiene que ver nada. jetblue se fue de atlanta creo que un problema que tuvo con DL.

 

[Latino2002]

Se supone que sean dos frequencias, ademas sera el primer destino internacional de tenga Song, ya se hico una reunion para esto.

Ojala yo pueda subirme en el 1er avion.

Latino, please keep us informed on these new developments from delta (song). I would be very much intertested in seeing a direct service from atl to anywhere in DR, especially sti.
I was at ATL recently and what an airport, they are building another huge runway to accomodate more traffic. Delta is still coming on strong and keep very well maintained planes with 1st class customer service. I have not flown in song yet but I am sure if it comes with Delta's name then it must be good and will out perfom the competition (airtran).
Please keep me informed by PM if you don't care to post the latest updates on the threads.
Sam, you always give a new hope to dying visions.

 

[Latino2002]

Also the REP DOM will have soon a toll free reservation number to be handle by Latin American call center in Santigo de Chile.

 

[aviastar]

the question is, do we need DL in here??????????????????????????? Is there any chance for them, or they will do the same as AA flying SDQ FLL, like DL will fly to ATL, what for? DL shoulod make money, the era when airlines used to fly just to be presented at the market is over.

 

[Latino2002]

Sabes k who are you to said so??? cuando tu realmente viajes como lo dices me avisas...a lo mejor estare en RD abriendo la estacion de Song.

Ademas Si eso sucede....por que todo esto es rumor..nada comfirmado aun....se esta conversando con el gobierno, song viajara jfksdq/jfkpuj...

[Latino2002]

ANd recuerda que lo mas importante ahora mismo es atraer al cliente.....y lo mas importante es la seguridad .




ANd by the way..do ever know how many Dominican live in atl and around the tri states....North Florida, Alabama, Tennesse, south y north carolina???

viva aerofoo!!!!!!!

 

[Stanley Joaqu?n]

mucha gente dice ??Atlanta ay no ay mercado para venir a RD??

y si American, US Airways y otras se hubieran llevado de eso, no estuvieran volando algunas rutas al pais.

cuando US Airways inauguro la ruta PHL-SDQ diario en 320, los tradicionalistas que creen que solo de JFK y MIA se viene dijeron, hmm esa gente tres meses le doy para que se retiren.

en verdad duro dos meses y pico la linea transportando como quien dice el avion vacio, porque hubieron dias en sus inicios que el avion llegaba a santo domingo con 15 personas, pero hoy US saca sus aviones con buena ocupacion.

lo mismo con las rutas desde Boston y Fort Lauderdale de American. sin embargo han sido rutas triunfadoras.

y seguir?n abriendose mas rutas desde USA, y esa de ATL si se llega a dar seria otra. y casi me olvido de Pan Am desde Sanford, aunque claro ya esto viene sub contratado.

y ollendo rumores, oigo que American prepara ORD-SDQ.

Simple, Hub and Spoke. Thank you!

Thumbs up for DL.

I personally know of a nice sized dominican community in atlanta area. They hold their regular parties and meetings throughout the year. They are very well organized and often bring in music bands from DR to perform there. The organization came into full swing during the 1996 summer atlanta olympic games. The organization invited the whole olympic athletes to a party and discusses streghtening their future dominican role in atlanta region. That was in 1996, now I expect to see a huge increase in the number of dominicans living in the atlanta (nearby) region.
About, why we need DL in DR?
Who would have thought DL's atlanta- costa rica route would be profitable? DL ended up adding another location in costa rica in addition to regular flights to san jose.
DL has been making consistant progress in its south american, central american and caribbean routes. Buenos Aires flight will or have resumed to normal schedule. ATL-SDQ / PUJ will be a huge success for DL and many people will be very excited to see this happen (including myself).
Regards,
AZB (huge fan of DL)

 

[aviastar]

let's wait, by the way, I don't think there is such a huge community in GA, are there enough dominicans to fill at least 75% of DL-s 757 on daily basis?

Spaking of HUBs, MIA is the perfect hub for DR. And DL dosn't provide that kind of service they could've get the market at once.


Dominican travllers originated here don't have enough money to fly that much at this moment.

What DL should do is explore PUJ, there they will have their market for US travellers.

 

[ccarabella]

how about people flying out

of Minnesota, Texas, Chicago, Los Angeles etc? Do you think that everyone that flies out of Atlanta to Latin America & the Caribbean lives in Atlanta? All of the above and many more have to change planes in either Miami or New York.
Atlanta is a major international gateway. Passengers would have options.
If Song were to offer nonstop service out of Atlanta it would be servicing customers throughout the USA not just local Atlantans.
Think nationally here. Not everyone lives in NYC or MIA.

[Stanley Joaqu?n]

right ccarabella.

thats flights no is only for people live in atlanta or dominican people, is for all people to DR from many Delta destinations via ATL.

 

[Stanley Joaqu?n]
