Santo Domingo.- In March, Arajet, the Caribbean’s budget airline, transported over 64,000 passengers, excluding transit passengers, according to the report on Dominican airline traffic released by the Civil Aviation Board of the Dominican Republic.
With these figures, Arajet reinforces its position as the leading airline in the Dominican market, having transported over 250,000 passengers, including transit passengers, in the first quarter of 2024.
Arajet emphasized, in a statement to the media, that the JAC report underscores its status as the national airline with the highest air activity, accounting for 79% of operations in the Dominican Republic.

“We extend our gratitude to the passengers who have chosen Arajet as their preferred airline for connecting with other cities across the continent aboard our modern and comfortable aircraft,” said Pacheco Méndez.
