Charters to the Dominican Republic
Today, not only regular flights, which you read about above, fly to the Dominican Republic. There is also a huge number of charters from different cities of Europe, USA, Canada.
It is important to know:
Everyone knows what a charter is. For those who don’t know, I’ll briefly explain. This is a plane that is chartered by some major travel agency for a specific route. You can get on this plane only by purchasing a package tour from this tour agency. Where the price of the tour will include the flight. Sometimes, of course, charter tickets appear on free sale, but this is rare.
Remember, not every package tour guarantees a direct charter flight, sometimes they are regular flights and even with transfers. But if you are flying on a charter direct flight, then you bought a package tour.
Where to buy a ready-made tour at the best price can be found at the links at the end of the article. Only the largest players in the global package tour market are listed there.
Following the link you will find a rating of 5-stars hotels in different resorts of the Dominican Republic.
- Cheap tickets to the Dominican Republic from Europe, USA, Canada and other countries can be found on the largest aggregator Aviasales. Tickets are searched for all airlines in the world.
In conclusion: this is not the most complete list of all flights to the Dominican Republic. But these are perhaps the most convenient routes. Now, when searching for tickets, you know which routes, air companies and cities to pay attention to. And if you have any difficulties with the selection, write in the comments or email me, I will always help in any way I can.
We wish you fast flights and short connections!
