The primary airport, Melville Hall Airport (DOM), is on the northeast coast
and is about a 45-minute drive from Portsmouth. The second is Canefield Airport
(DCF), about 15 minutes from Roseau on the southwest coast. Melville Hall
Airport is suitable for limited use of commercial jets because of runway
length. Melville Hall currently has regular service by American Eagle, Winair,

Conviasa and Amerijet, which, using Boeing 727 Freighters, is the only airline
with jet service to the republic. A runway extension and service upgrade
