Arajet´s passenger numbers between Argentina and the Dominican Republic have grown by more than 100%

Arajet, the flag carrier of the Dominican Republic, continues to strengthen its presence in the Argentine market, registering a growth of more than 100% in passenger transport between Argentina and the Dominican Republic during 2025, reaffirming its commitment to air connectivity and the development of tourism in the region.

In 2025, Arajet transported 113,271 passengers between the two countries, according to the Dominican Republic Civil Aviation Board, plus some 54,000 passengers who used Arajet to make connections from Buenos Aires to another of the airline's destinations in the Americas.

These figures represent a growth of over 100% compared to 2024 for Arajet in the Argentine market, and occur in a context of general expansion of the airline, which in 2025 reached a historic performance by transporting almost one and a half million passengers, reflecting a growth of 37% in its general network in relation to the previous year.

This increase in air traffic also aligns with the sustained growth of Argentine tourism to the Dominican Republic, which increased by 62% in 2025, driven by greater flight availability and new connection options. Argentina has established itself as the third most important market for the Dominican Republic in terms of tourists, surpassed only by the United States and Canada.

According to the Dominican Ministry of Tourism, 442,088 Argentinians traveled to the Caribbean destination last year, compared to 272,450 in 2014. The upward trend continues: January saw an increase of nearly 10% year-on-year.
Arajet's Chief Communications Officer, Manuel Luna, highlighted the importance of the Argentinian market within the airline's growth strategy. “Argentina has become a key market for Arajet. This growth reflects passenger confidence and the positive impact our operation is having on connectivity between both countries, as well as on strengthening tourism to the Dominican Republic,” Luna stated.

Furthermore, Arajet announced that in 2026, as part of its expansion in the Argentine market, it will inaugurate new routes from Mendoza (MDZ) and Rosario (ROS) to Punta Cana, both with three weekly flights, beginning operations in May and June respectively. This will complement the routes Arajet currently operates from Buenos Aires and Córdoba.

With these actions, Arajet reaffirms its vision to continue positioning the Dominican Republic as the new Air Hub of the American continent, expanding connectivity between Argentina, the Caribbean and the rest of America, and offering passengers more safe, modern and accessible travel alternatives.
