José Ricardo Botelho, ALTA's Executive Director and CEO, said: "We are pleased to welcome Arajet to ALTA. Its focus on the democratization of air transport, together with its commitment to sustainability, are examples of what this sector is capable of offering to Latin America and the Caribbean, a region that does not have other means of transport that are as efficient and safe, a region that greatly benefits from the creation of jobs and
opportunities for millions of people every time a plane lands in a locality.
We are confident that their participation will be key to continue driving growth and connectivity in Latin America and the Caribbean."
One of Arajet’s main value propositions is the “democratization of the skies,” which they promote by offering affordable fares and opening new routes that connect the Americas. In addition to its focus on accessibility, the airline also stands out for its commitment to operational efficiency and sustainability. Its entire fleet is made up of state-of-the-art Boeing aircraft, which has allowed Arajet to reduce
fuel consumption by 14% and decrease environmental noise by 50% compared to other single-aisle aircraft.
"Belonging to ALTA means joining the largest aviation network on our continent, which fills us with pride and opens up a range of opportunities for synergy with the industry to continue growing and providing the best world-class service to all our passengers," said Victor Pacheco, CEO and founder of Arajet.
On its second anniversary, the airline has managed to connect Santo Domingo with more than 23 destinations in 16 countries. In addition, Arajet has been recognized as the best new airline in the world at the 2023 CAPA awards.
By joining ALTA, Arajet reinforces its commitment to continue expanding its network of destinations and its fleet, working together with the other members of the association to contribute to the sustainable growth of the airline sector in the region.
