I think that the best airline that currently flies to the DR is Continental Airlines, It's not the cheapest one but it's the best one. My Opinion....

I have flown with AA, Continental, Delta, and JetBlue. JetBlue is the best in terms of comfort, reliability, courteous service, and being customer friendly. All the airlines are similar in costs, and you have to research the best price each time you travel, but if the costs are comparable, JetBlue is the winner, hands down.

Th is question of course depends on where you're hoping to fly into, and whether non-stop is important, and other factors. For us, Continental is the favorite because we can land in POP instead of STI, minimizing our ground travel to our apartment.
The service has been good as well, and the price is competitive.

Default AA all the way!!

I know I am going to draw alot of flak for this, but American Airlines is the best airlines. They usually have the best prices and the most available schedule. I know they are late tons of times, but I remember when they had up to 4 flights a day leaving JFK. Also their customer service is pretty good (they promptly answer e-mails) and they have a very good frequent flyer program, which is easy to use. One time my flight was late by three hours, I sent them an email and later received 5,000 miles and a $200 voucher, not bad. I also get small perks like upgrades to first class and free entry into the emeralds club.

Oh yeah, Continental is in Newark and I live in Brooklyn Heights, so convenience, I opt for JFK.

I am in full agreement although I have never travelled with Continental.

I could honestly not say enough great things about Jetblue regarding every aspect of the airline. For me, there is no other choice.
