The beaches. The thatched roofs. The white sand. The Brugal. Punta Cana is one of those classic Caribbean hotspots, where you can stay at a large all-inclusive resort and in a few moments’ stroll end up at an old-school beach shack.
And the Dominican Republic’s most-visited destination is also easy to get to, with more flights from the US than almost any airport in the Caribbean, a number that’s about to grow.
Beginning in January 2026, Delta Air Lines is expanding its flights from Atlanta’s Hartsfield Jackson International Airport to Punta Cana’s famous thatched-roof airport.
The expanded service will mean an additional daily flight for the entirety of the period between Jan. 6 and April 12, 2026.
That means four daily flights from Atlanta to PUJ, a pretty big jump.
It’s part of a bigger Caribbean expansion for Delta this winter that the carrier just announced — a very positive sign for both Punta Cana and the region.
