Vance W. Amory International Airport is the primary airport serving the island of Nevis, the smaller of the two main islands of Saint Kitts and Nevis. Named after a former Premier of Nevis, it handles both regional and limited international traffic, connecting the island to neighboring Caribbean destinations.
The airport features a single runway and modest terminal facilities suited to the scale of Nevis's tourism-driven economy. It serves as a key entry point for visitors arriving from nearby hubs such as San Juan, Puerto Rico, and Antigua, where connections to transatlantic flights can be made.
Due to the island's small size and population, the airport operates at a relatively low volume of traffic but plays a vital role in supporting the island's hospitality and resort industry, which includes several internationally recognized luxury properties.
