Arajet Inaugurates its Flights to Sao Paulo
At 3:18 this morning, Friday 22, the inaugural flight of Arajet landed at Sao Paulo-Guarulhos International Airport, which had departed from Santo Domingo at 19:20 the previous day.
This first service was operated with a Boeing 737 MAX 8, registration HI1081, which, as highlighted by Arajet through an Instagram story, had a Brazilian captain and a Dominican first officer.
The Dominican low-cost carrier had started selling its flights to Sao Paulo in June, which will operate three times a week with this schedule:
- Flight DM 269 Santo Domingo-São Paulo: SDQ 19:20 – 03:35 (+1) GRU / Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.
- Flight DM 270 São Paulo-Santo Domingo: GRU 05:40 – 11:50 / Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.
These flights will be served by Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft with a capacity for 185 passengers, providing 1,110 seats per week. Arajet will be the only operator connecting the Dominican capital with São Paulo.
To these will be added Toronto (YYZ), starting October 24; Santiago, Chile (SCL), starting October 29; Montreal (YUL), starting November 7; and Buenos Aires (EZE) starting November 14; in addition to a new route between Bogotá (BOG) and Santiago de los Caballeros (STI).
In 2024, Arajet hopes to move 1.5 million passengers, positioning Las Americas airport in Santo Domingo as a new north-south continental hub. Its arrival in the United States will be key to this, for which they are only waiting for authorization from the government of that country.
