The V.I.P facility at the Douglas Charles airport is being rehabilitated at an estimated cost of 1.6 million E.C dollars.
The lounge, when completed is expected to create a luxurious atmosphere for visitors and citizens.
The new lounge is also a way to cater to the visitors attracted to the new five star resorts on island.
“We have made tremendous investments in the hotel sector in Dominica, and you would have seen that we now have 5-star resorts on island like the Kempinski, Jungle Bay and Secret Bay. Consequently, we are attracting a new niche of visitors to Dominica who would require luxurious service, and that has been a focus of the ministry to provide service to that niche market,” stated Minister for Tourism, International Transport and Maritime Initiatives, Honourable Denise Charles.
