Private Jet Airports in the Bahamas
The Bahamas has several airports accommodating private aviation, although runway capabilities, customs facilities and aircraft suitability vary between islands.
Lynden Pindling International Airport (NAS) is located on New Providence and serves Nassau and Paradise Island. It is the country’s principal international airport and accommodates private and business aviation through established facilities.
Exuma International Airport (GGT) is located on Great Exuma near George Town. It provides access to resorts, private properties and onward connections throughout the Exumas, subject to aircraft and operating requirements.
North Eleuthera Airport (ELH) is a convenient gateway for travellers visiting Harbour Island and northern Eleuthera. Passengers travelling to Harbour Island generally continue by road to the dock and then by a short water taxi or boat transfer.
Governor’s Harbour Airport (GHB) serves central Eleuthera and may be suitable for passengers staying in that part of the island, subject to aircraft capabilities and available airport services.
Marsh Harbour Airport (MHH), officially Leonard M. Thompson International Airport, serves Great Abaco and provides access to Marsh Harbour and onward connections to surrounding cays and boating destinations.
Grand Bahama International Airport (FPO) is located in Freeport on Grand Bahama Island and accommodates international aviation, including suitable private aircraft operations.
For passengers staying in Nassau or Paradise Island, Lynden Pindling International Airport is generally the most convenient arrival point.
Travellers visiting Harbour Island should consider North Eleuthera, while those staying on Great Exuma may find Exuma International Airport more appropriate.
For private island resorts, airport selection should be coordinated with the property’s onward transfer arrangements, as the nearest suitable jet airport may still be some distance from the final destination.
Customs and immigration availability, airport operating hours, runway limitations and handling arrangements should be confirmed for each proposed flight.
