Santo Domingo. Lawrence Cannon, Minister of Transport, Infrastructure and Communities and Michael M. Fortier, Minister of International Trade, announced the conclusion of a new Blue Skies bilateral air transport agreement with the Dominican Republic.

The agreement allows airlines of both countries to serve any cities in both Canada and the Dominican Republic with their own aircraft and code-sharing services, for both passenger and all-cargo flights. Air carriers can freely decide the frequency of services and prices to be offered.

"This agreement is another step forward in the implementation of Canada´s Blue Sky international air transportation policy which was put in place to open air transport markets," said Minister Cannon. "It will be beneficial for travellers and shippers, airports and airlines of both countries."

The Dominican Republic is one of Canada's largest air travel markets and an important tourism destination for Canadians. In conjunction with flights between the two countries, services may also be offered to and from third countries.
