  The airport arrival went well.
  I will say if you plan on coming to St. Lucia and renting a vehicle. BOOK IN ADANCE, whether it be online or over the phone. Make an reservation for a rental vehicle because when we arrived. Everything was booked and without a reservation. We got lucky and got the last rental car and I mean the last! Save yourself a lot of stress and make that reservation in advance.

  This is a very small airport, but surprisingly quick to get through immigration and customs. There are a limited amount of airplanes arriving at one time so it is quicker to get through the lines. The time to receive your luggage on the carousal is rather slow, but they do operate on island time. The airport is under a renovation so it will be more accommodating in the near future. Limited seating and food options in the departure area but I expect that to change in the future. It was a good visit and the people were nice.

  Small, like a local airport. A few bar/fast food, some shop with alcohol, cigaretes etc. Small waiting room. No gates, just walki in/out

  Basic airport with very few amenities. Waits are long, depending on the time of day you arrive. We had to wait in line to get a printed ticket from American and it was very slow. Made our flight with 10 minutes to spare. Do not expect to get a real meal here before leaving - there are not really any options, especially after security!

  It's a small airport. Not much to offer, but yet better then nothing. Got to board the airline from outside. Haven't done that in years.

  Efficient little airport. Arrival from US very fast. Quick health check for temp and vaccine. And then fast immigration. Bags came out fast.

  Hewanorra International Airport in St Lucia is small, but very efficient. From dropping our luggage, going through customs and waiting to board our flight - it was all seamless. The staff were friendly and helpful.

  A very small airport, obviously, due to the size of the island! Arrivals was very straightforward, we didn't have any queues but we were first off our plane so I'm not sure what the queues were like for the people at the back. Leaving St. Lucia was equally quick, check-in and security was a breeze. There are a few shops after security, and a food court with three places to eat. We had an awful hotdog, some chicken that was mostly batter/bread, and some stale french fries.

  Little, yet well equipped airport. We enjoyed the ice-creams and the local choice of rum, a lot of presents were bought.
• Jeff McKeown ★★★★★ 4 months ago
  The airport was nice. Small, but had several food options and last minute shopping options. The service was very pleasant.

• Heather Barbie ★★★★☆ 6 months ago
  Easy in and out. Just hope for good weather when boarding or deplaning as you will be walking on the tarmac.
• Kim Ford ★★★☆☆ a year ago
  Very good for covid surveillance. Bit of a scrum for the departure gate. Club lounge nice and calm.

  Small, not much to see or do, not modern but hey its a small island and this does the job. Wifi available. Check in was fast/simple.
• Michael Bascom ★★★☆☆ a year ago
  Pros:
  The agents at the desk are very personable and helpful.
  Overall navigation through the airport is straightforward.
  Despite one Central security point, it operates smoothly.
  Cons:
  The intercom is incredibly hard to hear and understand.
  Walking to/from the plane can be confusing as paths with other flights cross

  Small and busy airport, I would recommend booking the private lounge for a more relaxed wait for your flights, also consider using fast track to get you through customs quicker.
• Michael Moesch ★★★★★ a year ago
  It’s a small airport, easy getting through. It was a little hot where you wait, but it’s doable.
  My real shout-out goes to Savanna at Harry Edward Jewelry. For a small place in a small airport, the watch selection was better than I anticipated. I looked at Tudor and Omega. Watches are retail price, a few had some decent promotions. But Savanna was super helpful and patient as I tried on several watches. I didn’t purchase but I wanted to leave her a review since she was so wonderful!

  Quaint Caribbean airport. Lounge upstairs had great service.
• gaynor Bacon ★★★☆☆ a year ago
  Very small airport. Be aware that there is no tobacco or cigarettes for sale in departures area
• Zack Kahmeyer ★★★★☆ a year ago
  Not a bad little airport. Check in, security and boarding were all pretty smooth. They take the extra precaution questions for US travelers seriously. Asked multiple times about bags, gifts, etc... far more than any other country I have been to. Terminal space is ok. Not modern, but the bathrooms were mostly clean and it had A/C, plus some nice food options.
• Abenaa Brew ★★★★☆ a year ago
  The airport is small but offers last minute souvenir options from magnets to liquor. Also restaurants are upstairs if you need to grab a bite before your flight.
  The departure process was simple which I liked.
• Godfrey Mott ★★★★☆ a year ago
  The immigration process was very well organised. With all the extra paperwork reviewed manually efficiently. The baggage delivery was a bit slow and the priority bag labels were ignored by the unloading staff such that a lot came off last.
• April Hoffman ★★★★☆ a year ago
  They were efficient and moved everyone through quickly from the health screening to immigration and customs. The stand for our hotel was easy to find by the door. There were many taxi drivers ready and waiting and we went with the driver we were directed to by our hotel representative.
• Richard Federbusch ★★★★☆ a year ago
  Generally pleasant. A bit of a walk to get to the covid screening area. Very well organized. Customs was efficient. Baggage was waiting for us. Cab service to hotel was also well organized.
• J Hegg ★★★★☆ a year ago
  Just have a little patience and all your paperwork and you'll be fine. I like the fact that you board and exit the plane from the front and back doors at the same time.
• Jamie Aimes ★★★☆☆ a year ago
  Basic Caribbean airport. No available wifi, and we were told through our resort we needed to be there 3 hours early. After getting there and going through the customs and security process (which didn't take long at such a small airport), we still had a full 2h45m to sit and wait. Limited food options for my wife who has a gluten allergies.
• Nick Huddleston ★★★★★ a year ago
  Great airport with friendly staff. The walk from the plane to arrival hall was really neat. I enjoyed a Piton beer while waiting to depart.

  Small but very nice. Walk off plane on tarmac. Clean and well organized.
• Shermain George ★★★★☆ a year ago
  Will they have done some upgrades and they look good but waiting seats show be added for persons waiting on rides etc. It sad that you go to other airports and they have seating but this airport does not. A basic necessity.
• Joshua Henry ★★★★☆ a year ago
  Small but efficient with friendly staff. Like, actually friendly.

  In and out, super easy experience.
