To Santo Domingo
Several airlines offer direct flights from major US cities to Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic. Those airlines include American Airlines, JetBlue, Delta, United Airlines, and Spirit. Your final destination is Las Américas International Airport (SDQ). The flight from Miami to Santo Domingo is about 2.5 hours.
Arriving to Santo Domingo
Las Américas International Airport is 118 miles (190km) which is about a 3 hour and 16 min drive to Las Galeras where we will stay for the week.
