Grantley Adams Airport (BGI) - Barbados

Jets from North America and Europe land and take off at Grantley Adams International Airport, near the southern tip of Barbados, and this camera looks across the runway and apron as aircraft taxi in under the Caribbean sun.

The airport sits at Seawell, in the parish of Christ Church, about 8 miles (13 km) from the capital, Bridgetown. It's the only airport on the island, and its single runway is 11,017 feet (3,358 m) long.

A KLM mail plane landed here from Trinidad in September 1938. Once known as Seawell Airport, it was renamed in 1976 after Sir Grantley Adams, the first premier of Barbados. In 2025 it handled about 2.4 million passengers.

Did You Know? British Airways once flew Concorde to Barbados, and one of the retired jets was later displayed in a museum hangar beside the runway.
