Canefield Airport (IATA code: DCF, ICAO code: TDCF) is one of only two airports in the island nation of Dominica, the other being Douglas-Charles Airport. It is an airport on the west coast of the island nation of Dominica. It is 3 miles (5 km) north of Roseau, the capital. Construction began in early 1979 with British funding, shortly after Dominica's independence. It is about one hour away from the second largest city Portsmouth.
The airport has one runway 01/19, which measures 3130 feet (954 metres) by 75 feet. Runway 01 has a 500-foot displaced threshold. There is mountainous terrain to the east, and rising terrain north and south, with the Caribbean sea to the west. Commercial operators require proficiency checks for their crews to be able to operate at the airport.
