Private aviation.
The aircraft is the straightforward part. Everything that happens after the door opens is ours.
Twelve minutes from the runway.
In January 2026 La Romana handled 482 private, non-commercial movements — more than any other airport in the Dominican Republic, ahead of Santo Domingo's La Isabela and ahead of Punta Cana. Nationally, general aviation went from 13,951 movements in 2024 to 18,909 in 2025.
It is a single 9,678-foot runway with customs and immigration on the field, which means large-cabin and long-range aircraft arrive nonstop from North America, South America and Europe and clear where they land. Handlers here move passengers and crew through in fifteen to twenty minutes.
Our office is twelve minutes from that ramp. That is the whole reason this page exists.
We do not own aeroplanes.
And we would rather say so plainly than imply a fleet. Aircraft are chartered through Quantum Jets, our aviation partner, whose operators are checked against ARGUS ratings before anyone flies.
What we do is the part that goes wrong at eleven at night: handling, customs, the vehicle that is at the aircraft rather than at the terminal, the crew's hotel, and the three other things that now have to move because the departure slipped to Tuesday.
What happens between the steps and the house.
Ninety minutes of a private flight is spent in the air and about eleven minutes on the ground, and the eleven minutes are where the experience is either seamless or not.
- Before arrival
- Handler briefed, permits confirmed, customs advised of the manifest, vehicles allocated by party size and luggage.
- On the ramp
- Cars at the aircraft, not at the terminal. Someone you have already spoken to, holding nothing with your name on it.
- Clearance
- Customs and immigration on the field. typically 15–20 minutes
- Crew
- Hotel, transport, catering and turnround handled without you being asked about it.
- Departure
- We watch the schedule. When it moves, we usually know before you do, and the rest of the day moves with it.
- Onward
- Inter-island legs to Punta Cana, Santo Domingo, Puerto Plata for the north coast, and across to St Barth, Turks & Caicos and the Virgins.
Chosen for the leg, not for the photograph.
A light jet from Florida. A super-midsize from the north-east if the family is coming and the luggage is real. A heavy jet if you are arriving from Europe and want to do it in one. A turboprop if the answer is Samaná and the runway is short.
We will tell you when the smaller aircraft is the better answer, which is more often than a broker paid on value would.
Catering that is actually eaten.
Tell us how the family eats and we will have it put aboard at the departure end — the allergies, the child who only eats plainly, the coffee somebody cannot fly without.
It is a small thing. It is also the difference between a tray and a meal.
