Default Miami - Santo Domingo

Hello, I am trying to arrange a trip to Santo Domingo out of Vancouver BC.

I can get to Miami fairly easily, but I would like to know which airlines are operating between Miami International and Santo Domingo.

All I know of so far is American Airlines.

Thanks in advance

You better use American Airlines, they have 4 daily flights from Miami to SDQ. Why won't you use direct charter flights from Vancouver to Dominican Republic?

My difficulty is that I can land in Miami at 5PM, so I need a connecting flight an hour or two later.

So far all I can find is AA, at 7:20 Pm.

That works, but then it is the return that becomes a problem. I would like to arrive in Miami around 3-4 pM, as my flight leaving Miami to come home leaves around 6 PM. the best SDQ departure I can get from AA is 12:20 PM, arriving 1:38 PM, and I'm trying to avoid waiting in Miami for 4.5 hours.

aviastar:

So far I haven't found a charter from Vancouver.

The problem is length of stay. This is for business, and I am pretty sure I will be staying 1 month, and possibly a bit longer. My experience is that the charters are usually only for 2 weeks, and don't have any flexibility.

AA will fly the whole distance, but you end up having to overnight it somewhere along the line, and I am trying to avoid overnight hotel stays as well as long layovers in the airports.

In this case that AA service is ok, 4 hours in Miami is not so long, check Continental Airlines via EWR
