Colombian low‑cost carrier Wingo announced that it will launch direct flights between Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, and Bogotá, Colombia, beginning on 6 November 2026. The new service will operate twice a week, on Mondays and Fridays, according to Carlos Meléndez, Wingo’s Director of Planning, who spoke on the Miavisión program Entrevista Estelar hosted by Julio César Díaz. Meléndez said the first phase of the route will run until 25 January 2027, during which the airline plans to offer roughly 9,000 seats to passengers. The flights will be non‑stop and are expected to take about three hours. Departures from Puerto Plata are scheduled for 11:00 a.m. on Fridays and 4:00 p.m. on Mondays. Tickets for the round‑trip service will be available from US$300, and can be purchased primarily through Wingo’s official website, www.wingo.com. After the initial period, the airline will assess market performance before deciding whether to continue the route. The new connection aims to facilitate travel between the northern Dominican Republic and Colombia’s capital, potentially boosting tourism and commercial ties between the two countries.
