French authorities have launched a visa waiver for travelers looking to reach Dominica by ferry.

Authorities in Guadeloupe and Martinique have extended a visa waiver for travelers who enter either country in order to take a ferry to Dominica.

The waiver is valid until Sunday, Sept. 6.

Regional air carrier LIAT said that travelers holding a LIAT ticket from Dominica can change their flight to or from Martinique, Guadeloupe or Saint Lucia at no charge.
