Arajet launches direct flight between Punta Cana and Orlando, Florida

Punta Cana, DR.- Arajet has announced its continued expansion in the United States with the launch of a new direct service between Punta Cana International Airport and Orlando Sanford International Airport.

Flights will begin on October 26, 2025, with introductory fares starting at just $138 USD per person from Sanford (SFB) to Punta Cana (PUJ), and $162 USD from PUJ to SFB. The promotional fares are already available and can be accessed using the promo code #HOLAORLANDO, which offers up to 30% off the base ticket price (before taxes and fees; valid for one traveler per booking).

The route will operate **three times a week—on Tuesdays, Fridays, and Sundays—**offering direct access to one of the Caribbean’s most popular destinations. Following Arajet’s launch in Miami, this new route strengthens the airline’s presence in Florida, a key region for Caribbean tourism and home to vibrant Dominican and Latin American communities.

“The launch of service in Orlando marks another major milestone for Arajet as we continue our rapid growth in the United States,” said Víctor Pacheco, CEO and founder of Arajet.

“Florida is a cornerstone of our expansion strategy, and Orlando is the ideal city to solidify our U.S. presence—one of the most visited cities in the world and home to a thriving Dominican and Latino community. After record-breaking sales and sold-out flights in Miami, expanding to Orlando is the natural next step in growing our U.S. network and fulfilling our mission to make travel more accessible,” he added.

Passengers will fly aboard Arajet’s modern Boeing 737 MAX aircraft, known for their fuel efficiency and comfort. The airline boasts the youngest fleet in North America, offering an eco-friendly and enjoyable travel experience.

This new Orlando route, following the successful launch in Miami, reinforces Arajet’s growing footprint in Florida—an essential hub for Caribbean tourism and a cultural bridge to the Dominican diaspora.
