Air Europa Enters into codeshare agreement with Seaborne

Air Europa continues its expansion throughout the Caribbean by connecting its daily flight between Spain and the Dominican Republic with its neighbor, Puerto Rico. The Globalia Group Airline and Seaborne, based in Puerto Rico, have reached a codeshare agreement to cover the route Santo Domingo – San Juan, Puerto Rico, which will allow the connection of both capitals with the Adolfo Suarez Airport in Madrid-Barajas.

The agreement will permit Air Europa passengers to fly to Puerto Rico every day, by making a short stop in Las Americas Airport in Santo Domingo. This route will be added to the two direct flights that Air Europa has been operating between Spain and Puerto Rico since June 2014.

"This agreement represents a step forward in our mission to be the go-to airline in flying to and from Europe, America and the Caribbean," declared Air Europa's President, Juan Jose Hidalgo. "And I'm sure that with Seaborne we have found a great partner, due to their impeccable trajectory and incredible punctuality index of over 98%."

Seaborne is a company with over 20 years of experience in the Caribbean and an excellent security and operational performance history. For the Santo Domingo – San Juan route, it has an available fleet of 8 Saab 340B, Swedish-made aircraft that can carry 34 passengers.

"Seaborne is honored to be selected by Air Europa to provide this service," said Gary Foss, President and Chief Executive Officer of Seaborne. "It is a vote of confidence in our team of outstanding professionals that has brought service to 16 airports across the Caribbean. We want to especially thank the Tourism Company of Puerto Rico for their steadfast support of Seaborne", he said".

The codeshare agreement between Air Europa and Seaborne will take effect March 29.
