Total price includes taxes and the Jetvala service fee; baggage fees may apply.
Miami to Santo Domingo is one of the highest frequency international routes out of Florida, with American and JetBlue both flying it several times a day. The flight is about two hours twenty minutes to Las Américas, which sits east of the capital near Boca Chica. Because there are so many departures, one-way fares stay reasonable even close to the date, and it is a common first leg for Haitian families heading to the border towns or onward to Cap-Haïtien overland when Haiti flights are full. Both airlines fly from Miami's North Terminal (American, Concourse D) and Concourse E area (JetBlue).

When to book
The Dominican Republic is a year-round market: over 10 million passengers flew between the US and the DR in the year to June 2025. Prices rise for Christmas, Semana Santa (Easter week) and July to August. February to early April and September to early November are the sweet spots. Three to six weeks ahead is a good target outside holidays.
About the airports
MIA
Miami International Airport
Miami, US · America/New_York
Miami International is the gateway between the United States and the Caribbean, and for Haiti it is the hub that matters most: the busiest Cap-Haïtien route, the connecting point for American's flights from New York, Boston, Atlanta and Philadelphia, and the airport closest to Little Haiti and North Miami. Broward and Miami-Dade counties together hold the largest Haitian population in the country.
SDQ
Las Américas International Airport
Santo Domingo, DO · America/Santo_Domingo
Las Américas International is the Dominican Republic's capital airport and one of the busiest in the Caribbean, with nonstops to Miami, Fort Lauderdale, New York, Newark, Boston and more. It is also a practical staging point for Haiti's north: Santiago and the Dajabón border are three to four hours by road.
