There are two airports on Dominica. The 
largest is at Melville Hall on the northern 
part of the island and one hour’s drive from 
Roseau and 30 minutes from Portsmouth. 
Just 5 minutes drive from Roseau, 
Canefield Airport is convenient for inter¬ 
island transportation. 
Dominica does not have an international 
airport capable of accepting large modern 
jets although one is in the planning stage. 
Access is via international airlines into 
the gateways of Puerto Rico, St. Maarten, 
Antigua, Guadeloupe, Martinique, St. Lucia 
or Barbados. These airports are served by 
international carriers including American 
Airlines, Air Canada, American Eagle, Air 
France, Air Martinique, Continental, BWIA 
International, British Airways and 
Lufthansa. 
Daily connections are made via LIAT, 
Air Guadeloupe or Air Caraibes into either 
of Dominica’s two airports. 
There is a Dominica information desk 
in the arrival section of V. C. Bird Inter¬ 
national Airport in Antigua. This desk is 
open daily to assist people travelling to 
Dominica. 
Please remember to reconfirm your re¬ 
turn or onward bookings at least 72 hours 
prior to departure.

charter to surrounding islands for connec¬ 
tions to international flights.

service offers boat connections on a luxu¬ 
rious 200 seat catamaran. Connections
