Low-fare airline to offer more than half a million seats to travel to North, Central, South America, and the Caribbean in 2023
Arajet, the newest low-fare airline in the Caribbean region ended the year as a leading Dominican Republic-based carrier with over 81,000 travellers transported between September 15 and December 31. In 2023, Arajet is expected to offer more than 500,000 seats to passengers across North, and Central South America, and the Caribbean.
“I’m proud of what we have accomplished in just a short period of time,” said Vรญctor Pacheco, CEO and founder of Arajet. “Since Arajet officially inaugurated operations in September, thousands of Dominicans who had never flown have been able to do so and we are excited to continue our positive impact in attracting tourists from destinations that had never been connected directly.”
Arajet’s arrival in Dominican Republic is having a significant impact on tourism with the number of travellers to the region up significantly over prior years as those routes were introduced in 2022.
Arajet is the only airline in the region to have started operations with completely new and ultra-efficient aircraft and has opened 17 destinations since launching in September 2022. “We expect to double our fleet of Boeing 737MAX8 aircraft in 2023 as we continue to execute against our growth plan and provide Dominican travellers with new flight options, lower fares, and better service,” said Pacheco.
Recently, Arajet launched several alliances and products that deepen its mission to democratize aviation, among them an alliance with PagaTodo to allow residents of the Dominican Republic to buy air tickets and pay in cash at any of the 1,500 Paga Todo couriers throughout the country. The airline also recently introduced Arabonito, a corporate bonus that allows companies to reward the performance of their employees with the purchase of plane tickets or services.
