Very good initiative of the Dominican government in supporting this new airline , Hopefully there will be a route to Ecuador at a low cost because Copa and Avianca charge a very expensive ticket to Santo Domingo, The Dominican Republic offers countless tourist activities, not only on the beach but also in rural tourism. , Waterparks , hay 6 international airports and lots of fun (vivi 7 years in said country).
From Ecuador to the Dominican is a favorite destination for Ecuadorians, so it sure would work.

Definitely, the MAX makes its way in the region little by little.
