Arajet, a Dominican Republic-based airline, is set to launch new flights from Boston Logan International Airport (BOS) to Las Américas Santo Domingo Airport (SDQ) starting November 20, 2025. This route will operate four nonstop flights weekly on Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, and Sundays, providing new travel options for those in New England looking to explore the Dominican Republic and beyond.
One-way tickets for the Boston to Santo Domingo flights will start at $170 and can be purchased directly on Arajet.com. The initiative aims to make travel more accessible and affordable for New England residents, particularly for the significant Dominican community living in the area. By establishing this route, Arajet positions itself as a cost-effective alternative to established airlines such as JetBlue.
Arajet’s new service not only enhances direct travel to the Dominican Republic but also provides connections to over 25 additional destinations across Latin America. Travelers can easily reach popular locales including Aruba, Colombia, and Costa Rica through connections in Santo Domingo, making this a convenient option for a variety of vacation and business travelers.
The airline operates a modern fleet of Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, boasting one of the youngest fleets in North America. This commitment to using advanced aircraft not only ensures a comfortable and reliable travel experience but also aligns with Arajet’s goals to enhance its U.S. presence. Boston will become the airline’s second gateway in the Northeast, following the services already established at Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR).
Arajet’s expansion into Boston is part of a broader trend of increasing demand for affordable travel options to warmer destinations, particularly during the winter months. As travelers seek escape from the cold New England weather, the availability of competitive flight prices and direct options will likely attract many to consider exploring the Caribbean and other regions accessible via Arajet.
The new route will secure better connections for Boston’s large Dominican community, making it easier for them to travel back and forth between the U.S. and their homeland. This is especially pertinent as family ties and cultural connections are strong within the community. The introduction of these flights is expected to foster travel not just for leisure, but also for family visitation and other personal reasons.
A significant aspect of this launch is aimed at accommodating the needs of budget-conscious travelers who are looking for viable options without compromising the quality of their journey. Arajet’s pricing strategy reflects an understanding of the market’s demands, encouraging residents of New England to take advantage of affordable air travel to the Dominican Republic and other Caribbean and Latin American destinations.
Arajet’s continuous efforts to expand its routes and services underscore the airline’s strategy to become a competitive player in the North American market. With the launch of this new service, Arajet is expected to gain traction among those in search of economical and diverse travel opportunities.
