Puerto PlataPuerto PlataA north-coast city and province, birthplace of Dominican tourism, home to the cable car up Mount Isabel de Torres, Victorian architecture and the Amber Cove cruise port. is getting real momentum again. Aerodom, part of VINCI Airports, announced that Copa Airlines, Air Transat and WestJet are expanding their operations at the airport with more frequencies and new routes, according to Arecoa. That means three carriers from three different markets pushing in the same direction.
My read: Aerodom and VINCI opening up Puerto Plata consolidates the northern corridor. The region now has a stronger story to sell in North America. The ball is in the court of local hotels and tour operators, and the opportunity is wide open.
