The Dominican Republic’s leading low-cost carrier, Arajet announced it closed its first year transporting around 81,000 travelers from September to December 2022.
In 2023, the airline expects to add new destinations in North, Central, South America and the Caribbean.
“I’m proud of what we have accomplished in just a short time,” said Víctor Pacheco, CEO and founder of Arajet, in a press release on the occasion of the celebration of the first quarter of Arajet service. “Since Arajet officially inaugurated operations in September, thousands of Dominicans who had never flown have been able to do so. We are excited to continue our positive impact in attracting tourists from destinations that did not have direct connections before,” says Pacheco.
Arajet has opened 17 destinations since flying its first commercial flight on 15 September 2022. “We expect to double our fleet of Boeing 737MAX8 aircraft in 2023 as we continue to implement our growth plan and provide Dominican travelers with new flight options, lower fares, and better service,” said Pacheco.
Recently, Arajet launched several alliances and products to democratize aviation. These include an alliance with PagaTodo that enables residents of the Dominican Republic to buy air tickets and pay in cash at any of the 1,500 Paga Todo couriers throughout the country. The airline also recently introduced Arabonito, a corporate bonus that allows companies to reward the performance of their employees with the purchase of plane tickets or services.
Arajet is based at Las Americas Airport in Santo Domingo. It operates a fleet of Boeing 737MAX-8 aircraft flying to several destinations in North, Central and South America and the Caribbean region.
