Following their temporary service to Canefield, Dominica with their Twin Otters, WINAIR received a great amount of positive response for this service.
In contrast to Douglas Charles Airport (DOM), Canefield is but 5 minutes away from the centre of capital Roseau.
WINAIR and its customers have recognized the convenience for those who traveling to Dominica’s capital Roseau, and therefore, will offer scheduled service to Canefield (DCF) 3 times weekly commencing January 7, 2016.
Michael Cleaver, president and CEO of WINAIR stated: “If ever we have received feedback from our customers, it is on this service. Many customers have called us to request St. Maarten – Canefield – St. Maarten service, as well as our handlers in Dominica, Whitchurch Travel received requests to reinstate this service.”
Combined with the scheduled ATR service to Douglas Charles airport WINAIR continues to offer daily service to Dominica!
Schedule as of January 7, 2016:
Congratulations win air
Now add the Virgin Islands to Dominica on your schedule because list refuse to listen to us.
No little plane for me……LIAT ALL THE WAY
This is great progress. Hopefully it will be successful enough that they will also introduce a flight to Canefield in the late afternoon so that it’s possible to get there in one day from North America.
I note that AirCaraibe now also have St. Lucia as a destination in their scheduled services (to/from Martinique). They happen to be partners of Winair too and I wonder if arrangements could now be made for their service to be extended from Dominica (either DCF or DOM) to/from Fort de France.
Incidentally, AirCaraibe now offer a fare of Euro 541 (U.S.$594) return (all taxes included) between Paris and St. Lucia (Castries) valid till 21 July 2016. LIAT, BA and Virgin, eat your hearts out.
Thank you Win air
it was a long time coming since 1972
No small plane for me, LIAT I flying on still
Gee, it took them long enough. I wonder how long it will last? And the fares? All 2 of the airlines now use the same days of the week into and out of DA. Coastal Air is the only one also using Sunday for flights.
Enjoy the dangerous cross winds.
Thanks Anthony, I will. Winair , or others would not operate into- & out of Canefield if it were inherently dangerous. The de Haviland Twin Otter is eminently suited for this destination.
Praise God ..I had an excellent flight with Winair from DCF in Sept. after Erica. Thanks Winair. Keep up the good work,…Bye Liat
Great to see an airline that listens to its customers! Just imagine!
I still flying my LIAT wii
thank you Lord for this alternative.
Thank you Winair for listening and following through with the request of your customers.
So glad for your upcoming DCF service.
YES, I love it! A prayer answered.
very good.
Thank you Winair! Thank You
