Getting to Dominica
Dominica is serviced by two airports: Douglas-Charles (DOM), (formerly known as Melville Hall,) and Canefield (DCF) Airports. Most visitors to Dominica will arrive through Douglas-Charles, the larger of the two airports located in the north-eastern side of the island. It is located approximately one hour from the capital city of Roseau. Canefield Airport, a smaller airport with a smaller runway, is 15 minutes from Roseau.
