Providenciales International Airport

Providenciales International Airport is about 7 miles (11 km) from the resorts of Grace Bay Beach. The drive usually takes 20 to 30 minutes. Shared taxi vans can add a short wait at the airport while the driver fills the van, so allow a little extra time when planning your arrival.

The airport is in the middle of Providenciales, one of the main islands of the Turks and Caicos Islands, a British Overseas Territory. It is the main gateway to the country and handles more than 90% of its air traffic. The resorts of Grace Bay Beach are about 7 miles away, a drive of 20 to 30 minutes.

Providenciales International Airport has one terminal building. All airlines share a single check-in hall, and there are no satellite terminals. The terminal has five gates for international flights and one gate for domestic flights to islands such as Grand Turk and South Caicos, so you never need to change terminals.

Main airlines include American Airlines, Delta Air Lines, JetBlue, United Airlines, Southwest Airlines, Air Canada, WestJet and British Airways. InterCaribbean Airways and Caicos Express Airways fly to other Turks and Caicos islands and to nearby Caribbean countries. All flights use the airport's single terminal.

Taxis wait outside the terminal and are usually large vans rather than cars. They generally run as shared rides, carrying several groups heading in the same direction, and the driver may wait 5 to 15 minutes to fill the van. A private taxi for your group alone is also possible.

No. There is no public bus service on Providenciales or on any other island in Turks and Caicos. Travelers leaving the airport use shared taxi vans, private transfers, resort shuttles or rental cars. Some resorts run their own buses for guests, which must be booked with the hotel.

No. Uber and Lyft do not operate in Turks and Caicos. The local Conch Cab service has been suspended and was never allowed to pick up at the airport. From Providenciales International Airport, use a taxi van, a pre-arranged transfer or a rental car instead.

Visitors need a valid passport and a valid onward or return ticket. US, UK and Canadian passports must be valid for the length of the stay, while other nationalities need six months of validity. Many nationalities need no visa. Fill in the airline's paper immigration form in black or blue ink.

The drive from the airport to the Grace Bay resorts usually takes 20 to 30 minutes over about 7 miles (11 km). Shared taxi vans may stop at several hotels along Grace Bay, which can make the trip longer than a direct private transfer or a drive in a rental car.

Yes. InterCaribbean Airways and Caicos Express Airways fly from Providenciales to Grand Turk and South Caicos. These domestic flights leave from the domestic gate of the same terminal used by international flights, so you can connect without changing buildings. Check schedules ahead, as frequencies vary by day.

Turks and Caicos uses Eastern Time and observes daylight saving time, so clocks match the eastern United States. The official currency is the US dollar. The weather is warm and sunny for most of the year, and the Atlantic hurricane season runs from June to November.

The airport is operated by the Turks and Caicos Islands Airports Authority, created in 2006 to manage the islands' state-owned airports. It handled about 1.4 million passengers in 2023. The airport is open from 6 am to 8 pm, the same hours as customs and immigration.
