Air Dominicana is the flag carrier airline for the Dominican Republic. It was expected to begin operations in August 2009 with a Boeing 737-300.

This airline will operate flights to USA, the Caribbean, South America and Europe.

I hope it works, but one airplane is NOT an airline. They should get a smaller plane and add daily flights in the DR between airports.

Glimmer, as much as i admire your thought process, i part company with you on this one. if Belly can point out 5 major airlines which have not, at one or more times in their existence, declared bankruptcy, then i stand corrected. major source of income? what about major expenditure? pride cometh before a fall. i would love to see it succeed, believe me. i just have no faith in the idea of an airline as a good investment. not in today's economic times. besides, one airplane does not allow for the economies of scale which reduce purchasing costs, licensing obligations, etc. lets hope for the best.

Major airlines - Virgin, KLM , AirFrance, BA, Ryanair, Thaj, Singapore etc. etc. The trick is to get high load factors all year round, up-to date efficient aircraft, high utilisation, minimal overheads.

Fleet of Air Euroopa is modern - average age about 4 years and I found good service.
AA's fleet age average is 15 - geriatric.

Of course CW will prefer to fly in some geriatric AA junk when he can have a genuine Dominican experience with the backing of Air Europa!
