Arajet, the rapidly expanding flag carrier of the Dominican Republic, has selected Aptaero’s Departure Control System (DCS) to power its continued growth across the Americas. The announcement was shared jointly by executives of both companies who emphasized the alignment in objectives and vision shared by both companies.
Arajet’s CEO, Víctor Pacheco, stated that “Our mission is to offer the best value for their money to our passengers, warrantying a safe and seamless operation through our broad network of destinations and connections from our dynamic hub in both Punta Cana and Santo Domingo.”, who added “We have chosen Aptaero as a provider to ensure that we operate with a DCS that matches our growth projections”.
In just three years, the airline has built a fleet of 12 Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircraft and has become the first Dominican airline to carry more than one million passengers in a single year, surpassing the barrier of 2.4 million passengers up to date.
With a strong presence in massive transit destinations, such as New York, Miami, Buenos Aires, Orlando, Santiago de Chile, México City, among others, the airline has a firm order for 20 Boeing 737 MAX 8 aircrafts, along with options for 15 additional purchases and 5 additional aircraft through lease agreements.
As Arajet continues its rapid expansion and launches new U.S. destinations, it needed a platform capable of matching its pace of growth. Aptaero’s system provides the foundation to manage complex operations, connect multiple hubs, and deliver speed and scale without compromise.
Aptaero’s DCS is built for airlines with ambition and growth in mind. More than a check in tool, it is a dynamic aviation platform that connects every journey and empowers airlines with flexible, future ready passenger handling capabilities. From seamless check in and real time government compliance to precise baggage reconciliation and complete operational visibility, Aptaero’s DCS delivers reliability and speed at scale.
As part of the impact in Arajet’s operations, this implementation will represent effortless scalability as they expand operations at key hubs, faster automation and data driven decision making during every turnaround. Also, among other advantages, the airline will have advanced merchandising capabilities through check in channels, including personalized and dynamic pricing in an offer and order environment, and the ability to maintain the reliability, efficiency, and passenger satisfaction expected of a next generation flag carrier.
“Arajet embodies the energy and forward momentum that is transforming air travel across the Americas. Their growth story reflects the very spirit of what Aptaero builds for: systems that move as fast as our partners’ ambitions. We are proud to play a part in Arajet’s continued success.”, stated John Kiss, Managing Director of Aptaero.
