Argyle International Airport

BVC: How would you describe AIA and its facilities? Robertson: “The normal approach path is from the southeastern coast of the island and on that coastline you would see a beautifully laid-out runway. At that location is the Argyle International Airport that opened on Feb. 14, 2017. With respect to facilities here, we offer cargo services and ground-handling services. We have two terminals in one building. One is a domestic terminal because we are served by several Grenadine islands. We have just south of us, the first island of Bequia, and then there is Mustique Island, Canouan, and Union Island – all of which have small airports of their own – and there are many other smaller islands that are inhabited. Some of them are resorts. All of those airports are managed by Argyle International Airport Inc.” BVC: Which airlines operate through AIA? Robertson: “Argyle International is our main gateway into Saint Vincent and the Grenadines, the only one that has the runway length (9,000 feet) capable of taking the bigger jets. Currently, our scheduled passenger service operators here include: LIAT; Caribbean Airlines; Air Canada (tentative during COVID-19); American Airlines; and InterCaribbean Airways. In our cargo services, we have schedules with Amerijet, DHL, and FedEx. There are also a few others that do inconsistent random charter services through AT A GLANCE ARGYLE INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT (AIA) WHAT: The sole international airport on Saint Vincent and the Grenadines WHERE: Kingstown, SVG WEBSITE: www.svg-airport.com
