Contour Airlines has officially entered the Caribbean market with the launch of new nonstop flights connecting San Juan, Puerto Rico (SJU), and St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands (STT), to Douglas–Charles Airport (DOM) in Dominica.

The new routes, operated on Contour’s 30-seat regional jet aircraft, will offer passengers extra legroom, complimentary snacks, and inflight service, bringing added comfort and convenience to regional travel.

“This is an exciting step for Contour and for Dominica,” said Ben Munson, President of Contour Airlines. “We’re proud to bring our brand of reliable, comfortable jet service to the Caribbean, making it easier for Dominicans to travel and for visitors to discover the Nature Island.”

The service introduces the only nonstop jet connections from Dominica to Puerto Rico and the U.S. Virgin Islands, enabling seamless onward travel to global destinations.

Dominica’s Prime Minister, Hon. Roosevelt Skerrit, welcomed the milestone: “This new link strengthens ties between our islands and opens new doors for tourism, trade, and investment. It is a meaningful step toward greater regional connectivity, and I am proud that Dominica can be at the center of this progress.”

The launch was also praised by regional tourism leaders, including Dominica’s Tourism Minister Denise Charles-Pemberton, the Virgin Islands Port Authority, and the Puerto Rico Tourism Company, all highlighting the benefits for tourism, commerce, and cultural exchange.
