Liat Air announces new Dominican Republic routes starting December

Beginning December 12, 2025, Liat Air will launch flights to Santo Domingo (SDQ), followed by service to Punta Cana (PUJ) on December 15, strengthening air links between Antigua and Barbuda, the Dominican Republic, and the wider Caribbean.

The new routes mark a major milestone in the airline’s strategic growth plan, aimed at boosting travel accessibility and economic connectivity across the region. According to Liat Air, the expansion is expected to benefit families, business travelers, and diaspora communities while promoting trade, tourism, and cultural exchange.

Santo Domingo, the Dominican Republic’s capital and economic center, will cater to government officials, students, and corporate passengers, while Punta Cana — famous for its high-end resorts and beaches — is expected to attract leisure travelers seeking new Caribbean getaway options.

Liat Air CEO Hafsah Abdulsalam said the expansion represents the airline’s continued mission to strengthen regional ties.
“Our entry into the Dominican Republic reflects our ongoing commitment to making inter-island travel more seamless and accessible,” Abdulsalam said. “These new routes meet a growing demand for greater regional mobility and support tourism, business, and community connections across the Caribbean.”

In addition to passenger travel, the airline noted that the new services will also support the movement of goods and services, creating fresh opportunities for regional commerce and collaboration.
