United Airlines Launches Midweek Flights to Dominica

Starting October 29, 2025, United Airlines will offer a second nonstop flight from Newark Liberty International Airport (EWR) to Dominica, now operating every Wednesday in addition to the existing Saturday service. The new Wednesday arrival lands in the early afternoon, getting you to Fort Young with enough time to settle in before sunset. 

From there, your Fort Young experience begins: oceanfront relaxation, spa treatments, daily land and sea excursions and easy access to our dive dock, right on arrival. Whether you’re here to explore or unwind, this new travel option makes your journey to Dominica, and Fort Young Hotel, more seamless than ever.

Why Now Is the Perfect Time

Dominica is in the midst of an exciting evolution. In December 2025, the island will debut the world’s longest detachable cable car, offering panoramic views from the Roseau Valley to the famed Boiling Lake. What was once a six-hour hike will soon become a twenty-minute scenic journey through the rainforest.

This, along with a wave of new adventure-focused offerings, makes now the ideal moment to experience all that Dominica, and Fort Young Hotel, has to offer.

Celebrate With Our Fort Adventures Offer
