New nonstop routes from the Prairies mean new clubs, friend groups and family reunions looking for a trusted partner on the ground

More Canadian cities are flying direct to Punta Cana. Your next group could be one of them

This winter, Winnipeg gets a brand new way to the sun. WestJet starts weekly nonstop flights to Punta Cana on November 28, and Air Canada Vacations is adding the route too. Canadian visits to the Dominican Republic were already up 13% earlier this year, according to the Dominican tourism ministry, and more than 1.1 million Canadians travelled here in 2025.

For agencies, a direct flight changes the conversation. It turns "too far, too many connections" into "why not?" Curling clubs, golf buddies, church groups and big families from smaller cities suddenly have an easy way to escape the cold together.

That is where AF DMC Travel comes in. They are a licensed, trade only DMC in Punta Cana. They handle group transfers, excursions and fully built programs, and AF DMC quotes everything net for you. Your clients stay yours.
