La Romana International Airport announced the arrival of the first of two weekly flights from Poland operated by SkyUp Airlines, with the inaugural service reinforcing La Romana as a key destination for tourism development in the country’s East region and the Caribbean.

The first flight arrived from Warsaw, carrying 333 passengers aboard a modern Boeing 777-300R nearly at full capacity, highlighting the high demand for this route. The second flight will also connect La Romana weekly with the Polish city of Katowice, strengthening tourist ties between Eastern Europe and the Dominican Republic.

“This operation is the result of a strategic collaboration with prominent tour operators Anex Tour and Join Up, who play an essential role in organizing trips from Poland to Caribbean paradises,” said Luis Emilio Rodriguez, director of La Romana Airport. “These flights represent not only an opportunity for European visitors but also a significant boost to the local economy by promoting the tourism industry and creating new opportunities in the sector,” he added.

La Romana International Airport, known for its excellent infrastructure and proximity to iconic tourist destinations such as Casa de Campo, the artistic village of Altos de Chavón, and beach areas like Bávaro, Punta Cana, Dominicus-Bayahíbe, Juan Dolio, and Boca Chica, continues to strengthen its position as an ideal gateway for international visitors. A warm welcome for the inaugural flight’s passengers included a display of Dominican hospitality, ensuring their experience in the country would be memorable.

The inclusion of SkyUp Airlines in the airport’s schedule is a testament to the continued growth of the tourism sector in La Romana and the undeniable appeal of the country as a preferred destination for travelers worldwide. Recently, American Airlines also resumed its daily flight from Miami to La Romana, demonstrating the potential of this important tourist destination to generate new economic and business opportunities for the province and the East region of the Dominican Republic.
