A month after establishing a new base at the Punta Cana International Airport, Arajet is quickly becoming a leading firm in the Dominican Republic. The airline has no new destination plans for the third quarter of 2024, but is getting ready to start its first flights to the USA.

In the last week of October, Arajet will shift several routes from Saint Dominic/The Americas to its new base in Punta Cana.

Between January and August 2024, Arajet carried 577,517 passengers. This makes it the seventh largest airline in terms of traffic in the Dominican Republic. The JAC from RD reports that destinations in Mexico and Colombia had the highest demand, accounting for 41% of all passengers.

Since June 2024, the airline has operated with ten Boeing 737 MAX 8 planes, each seating 185 passengers. The Cirium platform anticipates the company receiving 18 additional aircraft by 2029, with an option for seven more MAX.
