Puntacana Group Foundation and IDB-Lab hold first symposium promoting solid waste valorization

Punta Cana, La Altagracia. The Puntacana Group Foundation and the Innovation Laboratory of the Inter-American Development Bank (IDB-Lab) held their first symposium called “The Future of Garbage 2023: Organic Waste”, in which the lessons learned and good practices of the Puntacana Group on the search for an integrated model of solid waste management were presented.

“What we promised is now a reality: Arajet offers connections to 9 countries in our network of 11 destinations with low fares so that more people can fly for the first time, visit friends and family, or do tourism in our region,” said Victor Pacheco, CEO and founder of Arajet. “Today an Arajet passenger in Mexico City can dine in Medellin and have lunch in the colonial zone of Santo Domingo, generating business and tourism opportunities in our country and contributing to the country’s development with its economic spillover,” he said.

Since April 5, Arajet customers can now purchase tickets to travel through more than 300 thousand new seats incorporated to the airline’s offer until March 30, 2024, and with 42 new connections already operating normally in the network, they can plan the vacation of their dreams for a fraction of what they imagined: “We offer the lowest fare, so that our passengers can customize their flights and pay only for what they need,” he said.

Arajet connects Mexico City (NLU), Cancun (CUN), Guatemala (GUA) and San Salvador (SAL) with Aruba (AUA), Curacao (CUR), St. Marteen (SXM), Kingston (KIN), Cartagena (CRT) and vice versa through two weekly frequencies on Tuesdays and Saturdays, opening new possibilities for development and exchange between the continent and the Caribbean.

The route to Kingston (KIN) is strengthened through four weekly frequencies and incorporates historical connections to Mexico City, Cancun, El Salvador and Guatemala; as well as St. Maarten, which strengthens its connectivity with the continent through connections to Mexico City, Cancun, El Salvador and Guatemala, which will provide new opportunities for business development and integration in the Caribbean.

“Very soon we will announce new routes to South America and the United States, since the Dominican state signs the open skies treaty with that country, and we will receive 5 new aircraft, which we will name through interaction with our customers on social networks with the names of 5 new protected areas of the Dominican Republic, to carry our message of respect and conservation of the environment through the skies of the Americas” assured Pacheco.

Arajet’s intervention closed with a presentation of its social impact program Pilot for a Day, which has already benefited more than 350 children and young Dominicans from vulnerable environments, and which seeks to motivate them to become passionate about the world of aviation and develop technical and professional careers as flight attendants, pilots, engineers and technicians, which will provide the human resources to accompany this new chapter in the history of Dominican aviation led by Arajet.
