The Fort Young is right on the sea in Roseau, Dominica's colorful capital.

Fresh off the news that American Airlines would be running daily flights to Dominica for much of the summer, the world’s largest airline has plans to extend that service. 

American Airlines already announced that it would be operating daily nonstop flights between Miami and Dominica from June 5 to Aug. 5. 

Now, Caribbean Journal has learned that the daily flight will relaunch in October, running all the way through March 2025. 

Americans Miami-Dominica service will continue from Oct. 7 through March 31, 2025. 

It’s a strong vote of confidence for Dominica, where American Airlines launched its first-ever nonstop flights from Miami back in 2021, the first nonstop service of any kind between the United States and Dominica.
