JetBlue has commenced service between Ft. Lauderdale and Santo Domingo, and is promoting the new route with fares starting at $99 one-way or $198 round-trip.

You can expect JetBlue’s fares to be among the cheapest for travel to Santo Domingo through May, but it’s still not a bad idea to do a quick fare-comparison before booking.
