Low-cost Caribbean airline Arajet is advancing its aggressive regional expansion with the launch of a new nonstop route linking Punta Cana, the Dominican Republic’s top tourist hub, to Rosario, one of Argentina’s most populous urban centers.
The new service will run three weekly flights on Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays, with a total capacity of more than 1,100 seats per week. This connection opens up streamlined travel for both Argentine holidaymakers heading to Punta Cana’s iconic beaches and Caribbean visitors seeking access to central Argentina, filling a gap in direct air connectivity between the two regions.
With the addition of Rosario, Arajet now serves four distinct cities across Argentina, a milestone that aligns with the carrier’s long-term growth strategy in the South American market. Argentina stands as one of the largest source markets for international tourism to the Dominican Republic, making this expansion a strategically significant move for the airline. Beyond point-to-point travel, the new route also connects Rosario passengers to Arajet’s expanding route network, which spans across the Caribbean, North America, and South America via the airline’s primary hubs in Punta Cana and the Dominican capital of Santo Domingo.
Víctor Pacheco, founder and chief executive officer of Arajet, emphasized that the new route underscores the company’s core mission: to expand access to affordable air travel and strengthen transportation links across the Western Hemisphere. Argentine transportation and tourism officials have welcomed the launch, noting that the permanent air connection is expected to drive growth in cross-border tourism, facilitate bilateral trade, and support broader economic development in both regions.
As Arajet continues to add new destinations across the Americas, the carrier solidifies its standing as one of the fastest-growing airlines in the region, building a unique network that connects major South American markets to popular Caribbean and North American destinations.
