Virgin Islands Port Authority Executive Director Carlton Dowe announced today that Sky High Dominicana will start service connecting the Dominican Republic and St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands next month. Beginning December 13, 2023, the airline will provide a flight connecting the two islands every Wednesday, onboard the contemporary Embraer-190 aircraft.
Sky High will use a modern airplane that can comfortably accommodate 97 passengers: nine in the opulent Business class and 88 in the Economy section. The flight's swift 50-minute duration ensures passengers have an efficient and pleasant journey to their destination. Flights can be booked online at skyhighdominicana.com.
VIPA Executive Director Dowe lauded the Authority’s Board and staff for their aggressive approach towards improving inter-Caribbean airlift for residents and visitors. “VIPA will continue to work closely with the Bryan/Roach Administration and the USVI’s Department of Tourism to seek additional airlift that will keep our islands connected as well as connect the USVI to the rest of the Caribbean and the world,” Dowe said.
This addition of St. Croix marks Sky High Dominicana’s steadfast commitment to expanding its network, bringing its total destinations to 21 vibrant locations across the Caribbean North America, and Central and South America. These strategic initiatives are primed to boost tourism and fortify connections in business and the diaspora between the USVI and Santo Domingo. "Our vision is to seamlessly connect destinations, and our newest route to St. Croix embodies this very ethos. Every new route is a promise of unparalleled service and comfort to our passengers," stated Mrs. Cesarina Beauchamps, president of Sky High Dominicana.
