Arajet to Launch Direct Rosario–Punta Cana Flights in June 2026 as Upgraded Airport Nears Reopening

The provincially funded upgrade aims to position Rosario as a regional gateway alternative to Buenos Aires.

Overview

  • Arajet will run three weekly nonstops between Rosario and Punta Cana, with tickets already on sale through the airline’s website.
  • Sources differ on the inaugural date in June 2026—reports cite the 16th, 17th or 19th—so the precise start remains to be confirmed.
  • Published details indicate departures from Rosario on Wednesdays, Fridays and Sundays, with a flight time of about 7 hours 48 minutes on a Boeing 737 Max 8.
  • Reported entry-level fares start near USD 722.78 per person, with higher-priced bundles around USD 798 to USD 819 depending on baggage and options.
  • Rosario’s airport says operations resume on December 29 after a roughly USD 150 million modernization—new runway, international terminal and jet bridges—with a public inauguration on December 27.
