Distance and time FLL–PUJ
Great-circle distance FLL–PUJ is about 914 miles. Block time on a nonstop is typically near 2.5 hours; wind, routing, and which runway you use still move the clock. Connections on the same city pair add layover time on top of that flying.
Punta Cana is about 1 hour ahead of Fort Lauderdale on standard time (America/New_York vs America/Santo_Domingo). Arrival clocks on PUJ are local. That matters more on this pair than on a same-zone hop.
When FLL–PUJ has a nonstop, that is usually the cleanest product. One-stop options still appear — they are worth opening only if the USD total is materially lower after you count the extra ground time.
