Aruba Airport festively welcomed Air Century to Aruba

Aruba Airport Authority N.V. (AAA) festively welcomed the Dominican carrier “Air Century” to Aruba on July 3, 2018.

Air Century is a Dominican airline, founded in 1992 by the current CEO and President, pilot captain Omar Chahin Lama; with current base of operations in the International Airport Dr. Joaquín Balaguer (JBQ), the Higüero in the city of Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic.

In the beginning Air Century offered services of excursions and aerial advertising. As the fleet of aircraft grew and diversified, the airline began operating charter flights, with corporate aviation services and crew transfers, with a 90% market share in the Caribbean region. Subsequently, the airline developed regular domestic routes such as Santo Domingo to Punta Cana, Barahona, Santiago and Puerto Plata. Air Century offers its customers an air transport with high standards of quality, ensuring safe operations, with aircraft that meet the needs of the market.

The flights to Aruba will be performed on board Saab 340 aircraft. The planned schedule contains flights to Aruba on Tuesdays and Sundays, whilst flights to the Dominican Republic will be available on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Sundays.

AAA Chief Commercial Officer, Mrs. Barbara Brown was happy to welcome the Dominican carrier: “With this new flight offered by Air Century, we can offer our passengers more quality flying options to and from the Dominican Republic and beyond other destinations in the Caribbean region. We look forward to a long lasting relationship that will hopefully develop into more frequencies in the future.”
