Main Terminal
The single passenger terminal, used by every scheduled airline for both international and regional flights, with one arrivals hall after immigration and customs.
Robert L. Bradshaw International Airport (SKB) is the main airport of St. Kitts and Nevis, on the island of St. Kitts in the Eastern Caribbean. It sits at Golden Rock on the northeastern edge of Basseterre, the capital, and is named after Robert L. Bradshaw, the first Premier of St. Kitts-Nevis-Anguilla.
Long-haul flights come from the United States, Canada and the United Kingdom. American Airlines flies from Miami year-round, with seasonal flights from New York and Charlotte, and Delta, United, JetBlue, Air Canada Rouge and British Airways add routes from Atlanta, Newark, New York, Toronto and London Gatwick. Regional carriers such as Winair, InterCaribbean Airways, Sunrise Airways and Cape Air link St. Kitts with Antigua, Sint Maarten, Barbados, San Juan and other nearby islands.
All passenger flights use one terminal, with a single arrivals hall, and a private terminal beside it serves private jets and VIP passengers. The airport has one runway of about 2,439 m (8,000 ft).
The airport is about 3 km (2 miles) from downtown Basseterre and the Port Zante cruise pier, a drive of around 10 minutes. Most travelers continue to hotels in Basseterre and Frigate Bay, to South Friar's Bay, or along the Southeast Peninsula to Christophe Harbour. Nevis, the sister island, is reached by ferry from Basseterre or by the Sea Bridge car ferry from Major's Bay.
