A spokesperson for Dominican airline PAWA Dominicana told reporters on 21 November 2017, that all of their flights and operations continue to be carried out normally at the Las Americas International Airport, even one day after Aerodom suspended some of their services and facilities because of reported arrears in payment for airport services.
In a press release issued on Tuesday, 21 November 1017, the PAWA spokesperson Elena Rosa Rodriguez, said that the company is currently in conversations with Aerodom that administers the Las Americas International Airport.
In the press release, the airline says it regrets the situation (the arrears) that have occurred and that it is their desire that their airline receives the same treatment that as is offered to other companies in the region.
She also recalled the fact that the airline was seriously affected by dozens of flight cancellations because of 2017 hurricanes (Irma and Maria) that seriously affected several islands in the Eastern Caribbean that are serviced by PAWA. She added that they were returning to normality and the airline expects to continue to expand into new areas. PAWA has announced flights to New York City for 2018.
