As spring basketball marches on, American Airlines has already scored a perfect March Map-ness bracket, with fans choosing Punta Cana, Dominican Republic, as their favorite destination from among 16 vacation spots. To celebrate, American is offering flights to Punta Cana International Airport (PUJ) from just 5,000 AAdvantage® miles one-way*, available to book now.

Punta Cana, one of the top-visited destinations in the Dominican Republic, beat out Cancun, Mexico, and Montego Bay, Jamaica, in the Caribbean Pleasure category before advancing to a win over Miami, which sent it to the final match-up against San Francisco.

Thousands of fans voted in the March Map-ness contest, which tipped off March 3 across American’s social channels, to cheer Punta Cana on to an impressive win. It’s no surprise the destination is a fan favorite as American offers the most flights of any U.S. carrier to PUJ.

Even though Punta Cana won the final prize, American is still giving travelers easy ways to visit destinations like Miami, Denver, Los Angeles and more with domestic deals starting at just $115 one-way, available to book now.
