Dominica Airport Construction to Accommodate Wide-Body Aircraft by 2027

The current airport in Dominica is located on the opposite side of the island from the capital, Roseau, due to mountainous terrain. A new airport is under construction further north with a longer runway, scheduled to open in 2027, with the aim of allowing wide-body aircraft to land.

They're building a second, they're building a new one with a longer runway even further up north that's scheduled to open in 2027 and the goal is to allow wide bodies to land there now.
