Flights to Dominican Republic

The average flight time from London to the Dominican Republic is nine hours and 15 minutes.

December to March is a really popular time to visit the Dominican Republic as the temperatures are high and rainfall is low. Flights are often cheaper outside of this period, but this can change depending on the time of year you book.

The Dominican Republic is considered one of the cheaper Caribbean islands to visit, which makes it a great option if you’re searching for a holiday in the archipelago on a budget. There are lots of all-inclusive resorts to choose from, where food and drink are included.

Once you land at Punta Cana Airport you can hop into a taxi, or you can pre-book a shuttle service to your resort before you travel. Book a holiday and you can add transfers to and from the airport with us.

If you want to explore the island at your own pace, why not hire a car with British Airways? You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support. Plus you can collect Avios on every rental.

The Dominican Republic’s tropical weather draws in visitors all year round. The country’s climate is often referred to as ‘the endless summer’ thanks to its warm and sunny conditions. And, with plenty of beaches to relax on – from lively stretches to secluded spots – there’s ample opportunity to enjoy it. When you want a break from relaxing, there are mountains and rainforests to explore, plus activities like zip lining and rum tasting available.

You can book a hand baggage-only ticket or make the most of our generous baggage allowance. If you choose economy standard or one of our British Airways Holidays’ packages, each passenger can check in a bag weighing up to 23kg – in addition to a handbag, laptop case or other small bag. Families travelling in any cabin with younger children can also check in one car seat and one fully collapsible pushchair. Read more about baggage allowances for children.

Citizens of the UK and Ireland and EU passport holders do not need a visa to visit. If you hold a passport from a country or territory outside of these areas, you may need to apply for a visa before you travel. You can find out more about visa requirements for all the countries we fly to at the IATA Travel Centre.
