  • Enter your preferred departure airport and travel dates into the search form above to unlock the latest Dominican Republic flight deals.
  • When flying from Canada to the Dominican Republic, it is possible to have a non-stop flight. For example, if you are departing from Toronto Pearson International Airport (YYZ), you can fly to Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) or Puerto Plata International Airport (POP) without needing to change planes.
  • If you will be visiting The 3 Eyes National Park, you will find that it is most convenient to first fly into Santo Domingo/Las Américas International Airport (SDQ). After you have touched down at SDQ, you can head to the park by car, which typically takes around 20 minutes in total. Keep in mind that public transportation is not available.
  • Many travellers go to the Dominican Republic in order to visit the Indigenous Eyes Ecological Reserve. To go here, you can first fly into Punta Cana International Airport. After this, you can drive to the reserve, which generally will take you around 10 minutes. Public transportation is also not an option for this journey.

The drive to Jarabacoa city, which is located within the national park, takes approximately 1h.

All international airports in the Dominican Republic have ATMs and exchange offices on site, so you can withdraw money using your credit or debit card, or you can exchange Canadian dollars for Dominican pesos.
  • Easter is the most important religious festival in the Dominican Republic. As many Dominicans travel to visit their family or to take a vacation during this time, airfares are usually more expensive in the two weeks leading up to Easter Sunday.

Great flight and crew. Food isn't free and neither are headphones...

Great flight and crew. Food isn't free and neither are headphones...

We were in economy class but paid for option Plus which offer you an extra snack after take off, free earplugs & blanket. The crew were very attentive. The comfort however wasn’t great, hard to be comfortable in such restraint place. Wasn’t able to sleep through out the 7hrs flight and was exhausted upon arrival.

The flights were on time and the crew was friendly and helpful. The food was ok. The seats were quite cramped and if the seat in front was tipped back there was very very little room. The entertainment was only on your own device and there was no usb charging

Boarding and staff were excellent. The food was ok. Very cramped seating. No existent entertainment other than on iPhone over wifi with poor choices of movie or shows. Bring your own entertainment. Nowhere to charge your phone

Delay was not properly communicated. Service, plane, value of ticker were all great.

Excellent service and food in the Club Class. Warmly recommend. Much better than AC.

My new suitcase got busted when I arrived at Toronto , two of the wheels are broken and can no longer be used , I am very disappointed over this situation but the flight and service was awesome .

From what I saw there was no entertainment. Similar to my flight to London, I personally would like the attendants to be more interactive during the flight.

Air Transat left my luggage back in Montreal and it took them 5 DAYS to get it to Venice. Luckily I was still in town, or else their option was to send my luggage back to my house in CANADA. What a joke! Oh, and I had to find a way to go get it at the airport in Venice, they needed 72 hours more to get it to where I was staying.

I was pleasantly surprised. I booked the "club class" which was basically like Domestic First Class. The service was superior. Food was pretty good. Seats and cabin were comfortable. For the price I paid, I was very pleased.

Excellent and a surprise as I had never heard of it before.

Agent checking me in was great. Plane was nice. Problem was with the handling of my fragile check in. They damaged my steel drum, waiting to hear back from them to see if they will take any responsibility. Think twice about travelling with something fragile, they don't seem to treat it any different than normal luggage

The flight was on time and shorter time arrival than planned. I was an ultra basic passenger and understood one personal item on the plane. The announcements of one personal item and zone 9 boarding certainly felt like we were separated from the rest. Actually zone 9 passengers should be boarded second; we are not blocking aisles and can be seated much faster and deboarded faster too.

Was a short flight, not good or bad. Extremely cramped and I'm only 6feet 1inches. 295lbs.

I had a problem checking in as I didn’t have the correct code. I had to phone BudgetAir.com. They charged me an additional 174US for some tax or something in order to provide me with my booking number. I will never use a third party seller again. Absolutely criminal activity. But I did get to where I wanted to go

Still sitting in a hotel when I'm due for work

My trip was two parts flying from Canada to ATL then to PNS I had confirmed seats with tickets at boarding in Canada and bags tagged for said flight. Got to ATL got help to plane before boarding ended and was told at the gate that I had no seats on this flight even though I had tickets that said so I was told by a supervisor with Delta that I was booked on flight 5 hours later not the one on my ticket had to sit in ATL not knowing if my bags were on flight I was booked on or the one I was told at the gate for 5 hours later or even if I would have seat on that flight as seats were to be assigned at gate. Will never recommend West Jet product and am not sure about Delta any longer and had never booked thru Kayak for flight before and will probably never again and will be sharing my experience with who ever will listen to me about it to warn them to avoid the problems I went thru.

Delays happen but communication and care were very low on what ended up being a long day.

they forgot to load our luggage onto the plane and we were without it for half of our trip to Paris. Didn’t seem to have much interest in getting it to us expeditiously.

Terrible experience at the gate. Charged for carry on luggage despite them meeting the requirements for sizing.

Had to buy headphones. Which is sad. I did not so I listened to podcasts and slept. Free beer is excellent a d those pretzels are great too. Overall I feel Air Canada slightly exceeds Westjet for overall experience. But still more can be done. Like allowing guests to view a movie for free.

There was a terrible delay upon arrival in Barcelona. The plane had to park a great distance from the terminal, and only one bus was available to make the ~15 minutes each way trip, meaning it was ~ 45 minutes after we landed that I finally entered the terminal.

On the way to Vancouver from Toronto I was in AC 111. What an amazing aircraft. I was in economy but there was plenty of leg room and it was comfortable and also the entertainment system was good. On the way back from Vancouver to Toronto I was in Ac 120. It was not as good as the one before but it was okay. The entertainment unit was small and the seats were pretty tight but not the worst I have been in. Over all both flights were good but ac 111 was far better than ac 120. But I had a good experience. No delays, bags came on time. In fact both the times it was on time departure and early arrival which I appreciate

Crew were friendly and efficient. Love the hot towel service!

Our checked in luggage was not put on same plane as us in the trip to Quebec and on our return 4 days later to Toronto. At Toronto airport we were told it was at the airport and it would be 10 mins. This was not true as the i-tag in my luggage showed initially it was still in Quebec. We were made to wait 1 1/2 hours to get our luggage which it seems evident to me came on a later flight. This was despite being at airport in Quebec 2 hours before flight was due to fly out so our luggage was there very early. We were both wheelchair assisted so the wait in Toronto was especially difficult . As well as luggage issues our flight from Quebec to Toronto was cancelled and a new flight sent in the evening. We had to check out of our hotel and sit in a cafe for 3 hours until we came to airport still two hours earlier than required. This was by far the worst service I have used throughout my trips around the world

I book my air canada flight and i am an aeroplan card holder however I was required to pay for my first check-in bag. Terrible experience

Cold frozen fruit for breakfast was unexpected and a waste in my opinion. How about a warm bun would have been better. Otherwise great on time flight.

Everything was good on our two flights with Air Canada. Departed on time and smooth in the air. The short transfer window from domestic to international, although a little tight considering the distance one has to navigate is doable but some people freaked out tried to push off the domestic saying they would miss the international flight. They as disappointed t get a frozen breakfast something warm would have been much nicer. Glad for the vegan meals we ordered but a cold breakfast was unpleasant.

I used to enjoy the travelling experience, but no more. We pay more and get much less. No air travel for me on the near future.

On time, boarding was quick. Leg room plenty, entertainment choice great. Friendly hosts too

We waited in an overcrowded bus for over a half hour. It was uncomfortable. It would have been better to have waited in the terminal in a line

The food for sale on board has opportunity for improvement.

I paid extra for a comfortable seat in the second flight, but the plane didn't have those seats, the first one did

The Arajet person who greeted us initially was unhelpful & rude about the mandatory migration form which has to be completed digitally but the systems don’t work properly. The boarding gate was changed twice and initial boarding was delayed. Once on board we we had to wait an hour and a half before take off. It was hot and there was very little room for tall-ish people to fit their knees in. The crew were pleasant but working in a poor situation. The plane was delayed because we were waiting for people from a delayed interconnecting flight. Arajet must have known that before we were asked to board. Better information, decisions & communication were needed.

My seat was broken and the crew had to find me somewhere else to sit. The crew was extremely courteous about this

Personally, I will not use this fight again. The service is poor, you have to buy even water. They don't provide anything even sneak, you have to buy. They said Personally items for 7 kg. Then they use some measurements, if you have 7kg and if it's not getting inside of their measurements, you have to pay 80$ this is robbery. I will prefer other flight then this. I am désappointement taking this airplane.

It’s a shameful company. It ask as to go to counter to take the boarding pass, they simply send it by email, just to check the bags’ size in a smaller than normal template. DONT USE FLAIR! It will be more expensive than normal airlines at the end.

flight was okay, no wifi, no free drinks but worst of all they lost my son's bike for four days. Customer service was nonexistent - call a number that leaves you on perpetual hold, there's no baggage folks in the baggage claims area (in vancouver). we went up to international and nobody was at ticketing, went to domestic and they had us fill out a form. they could not tell us where the bag was. Anyway, highly recommend you drop an airtag for anything that's worth more than $500. My son's bike costs a lot more than that to replace; I was on pins and needles for four days.

The crew of this flight, specially the flight attendant in the front were the sweetest I’ve had in all my life, I genuinely hope they get a race or sum cuz of their efforts. It was just quite unsettling that the flight took so long to departure. It was supposed to leave at 10:35pm and we ended up taking off at 11:22pm…👎🏻👎🏻👎🏻

It’s bare bones but was on time so can’t complain.

Of all the countries I've flown to and airlines from around the world, I have never had such a dismissive an arrogant employee during boarding. After waiting in line for 20 minutes to board, I was sent to a second line for Passport verification. Natalie from Flair, repeatedly tried to scan my passport which didn't work for some reason but was too lazy to input my information manually. Bar code scanners aren't 100% reliable as we all know. She asked me my birthdate 3 times, made me wait to be the last person aboard and then smugly threatened me that my only bag could be charged for (same backpack I used as on my arrival as carry on). Natalie working in Ft. Lauderdale and the was the epitome of lobotomized tiktok brain with the charm of junk mail.

Food selection is very poor and sears are very uncomfortable.

Flight was 3 hrs late and another 2 hrs wait for baggage to arrive on carousel and a $7.00 food voucher that arrived as we were boarding our flight.

Seat rows so close together no one dares to put their seats back. Knees pressed against the seat in front, had to find a position putting my legs under the seat in front. But for 6 hours keeping that one position was ridiculous. All savings on the purchase price are taken back through charge backs for luggage $200 each way, Seat selection $44 per seat or you are seated by a computer randomly. Wife sat 5 rows away. Would avoid Flair in the future

The flight was safe (priority). Everything else is low-cost: too hard, delays, mediocre boarding, cost for carry-on and checked luggage.
