Any tips for arrival into Punta Cana airport
Will be heading to PUJ next month and want to know if there are any tips to get through customs and immigration quickly? I will be arriving at 11:30 a.m. on a Saturday and have heard that it gets a little busy at this time of day.
Any advise is appreciated!

what about flights?
we're trying to get to PUJ or LRM and we're coming from Dallas but I am not seeing any flights to LRM and those to PUJ cost a fortune for Aug 30-Sep 3. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

LRM options are extremely limited and this is an airport I would never consider. I would look into SDQ and paying a shuttle to the East if price is not bad. PUJ is the most expensive airport during US Holidays, as a lot of people tend to go there for the long weekend. SDQ has more business oriented and VFF passengers so prices are lower during long US weekends.

So anyone who is either Dominican Citizen, Resident, visa holder, or accredited diplomat should claim these taxes.
