Flights to Dominican Republic

A flight from London to Punta Cana International Airport takes around nine hours and 15 minutes.

The most popular time to visit is during the dry season between December and April. This period offers warm temperatures and minimal rainfall, perfect for winter travellers from colder climates. To save on your flights book during the summer or autumn and enjoy festival season, diving and soaring temperatures.

You can make a trip to the Dominican Republic fit any budget. Enjoy stunning beaches like Playa Macao or Playa Bonita for free. Eat like a local at street vendors or small eateries, where traditional dishes like rice, beans and plantain are cost effective and delicious. Public transportation like guaguas – shared minibuses – offer a cheap way to explore towns and cities. You can also visit free or low-cost attractions like the Columbus Lighthouse and the Modelo Market in Santo Domingo, or the Damajagua Waterfalls in the north of the country.

Once you touch down at Punta Cana International Airport, you can catch a taxi or hop into a pre-booked shuttle service to your destination.

You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to see more of what the Dominican Republic has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental.

Visit the Dominican Republic for the perfect balance of culture and relaxation. From humpback whale-watching off the Samana Peninsula to mountainous adventures in Jarabacoa – also known as the Dominican Alps – there's plenty of memorable activities to take part in during your holiday. For more natural beauty, visit Bahia de las Aguilas, a remote beach in the Jaragua National Park or Salto El Limon, a spectacular waterfall in the rainforest. You can also see ancient Taino petroglyphs and impressive cave systems in Cueva de las Maravillas.
