As airports go, what do you expect? A runway, terminal, planes and passengers. Well, you get this and oh so much more here. I am happy I flew to this airport, just for the experience. The runway is short enough but sufficient for 737s and A320s to land. The apron is small, it maybe can accommodate 3 or 4 airplanes. There is a spanking new terminal building. Which is not being used. Right beside it is this picturesque terminal building that could be on a postcard. It's a brick building, has two luggage carrousels and when you exit the front you overlook sugarcane fields. It reminded me of landing in the Cayman Islands many years ago.
Taxi connections into town are cheap and readily available. Tourists like myself are not ripped off. And there seems to be an abundance of staff at this airport. Quite what they all do I have no idea, but they're there and all dressed up.
Well worth a trip.
