New Eurowings expands long-haul routes for 2015/2016 winter flight timetable

• New destination in the Caribbean: Puerto Plata

The new Eurowings is further expanding its long-haul routes. Starting this winter, Eurowings customers will be able to fly to another attractive long-haul destination.

The port city of Puerto Plata is situated on the northern coast of the Dominican Republic. The old part of the city, dating from colonial times, serves as a charming focal point. Puerto Plata is an ideal starting point for numerous resorts with pristine beaches along the Amber Coast. The city has a wide range of cultural attractions for visitors as well.

Eurowings is also increasing its number of flights to Dubai and Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. Tickets have been on sale from € 99.99 since the beginning of March.
