Have BA given up on Dominican Republic?
Had a 7 night holiday with BA to PUJ in August 2022. Received an email today saying your flights are cancelled. Thought I'll get another email tomorrow saying your dates are changed with a 5 night option. To my surprise an email came a few hours later stating BA will no longer be operating services to your chosen destination therefore a full refund will be coming back in 14 days. I've since checked BA and you cannot book a holiday to PUJ for any dates in August.
Have BA actually cancelled PUJ altogether as a destination? Holiday number 9 cancelled since COVID!

Our flights to and from Punta Cana next April/May have also been canceled.
Rebooked on a direct flight LGW-PUJ in April, but a non-direct return flight PUJ-ANU-LGW in May. Slightly inconvenient, but not too bad I guess.
They removed our paid CW seat choices, though. And there's no way to reserve seats on the new flight. I guess imma have to call for a refund for these seats, then.

BA to Punta Cana
I am supposed to be flying to Punta Cana on 8th November with BA from Gatwick direct.
Worryingly looking at the flight not many seats are booked up!
Am wondering if they are going to cancel this years direct flights as they did with so many of you last year - even without Covid as an excuse!

COVID aside, most businesses would can a route if the demand was really really low
