Your first stop in paradise. Since undergoing major upgrades from 2000-2006, Grantley Adams International Airport is now a major gateway to the islands of the Eastern Caribbean, including exotic tropical Barbados. Direct international flights link the island with North America and Europe.

The airport now provides all the modern amenities travelers have come to expect, granting a warm welcome to arriving passengers and allowing those about to depart a chance to relax before their flights.

For those interested in aviation history, the airport is host to the Barbados Concorde Experience. At this unique museum you can step inside and explore a genuine British Airways supersonic plane, and experience first-hand the luxury of the golden age of intercontinental flight.
