Aerolíneas Argentinas has launched a new non-stop Boeing 737 MAX 8 service from Rosario, Argentina's third most populous city, to Punta Cana in the Dominican Republic. This route marks the airline's longest narrowbody service by distance and time.
The Friday-only service began on January 3, with flight AR1348 departing Rosario at 15:10 and arriving in Punta Cana at 22:20 local time. The return flight, AR1349, leaves Punta Cana at 23:35 and lands back in Rosario at 08:45 the following day. The block time for each leg is scheduled for 8 hours and 10 minutes.
The aircraft used for this inaugural roundtrip was LV-GVE, delivered in 2017. It features a seating configuration of eight business class seats and 162 economy class seats. This setup aims to keep the aircraft lighter to extend its range.
