Small laid back airport. Definitely has that Caribbean vibe. When we arrived we were escorted to Customs. The line, as with all Customs lines I've been in, moved slowly. However, once it was our turn things picked up. The agent was polite and didn't grill us. We got our bags and passed through a second checkpoint. Here they ask if you have any alcohol, etc. if you do, you have to pay a fee. In addition, each passenger pays an entrance fee.
On our way back, things were quicker. There were a lot less people when we arrived so passing through the security checkpoint was quick. There is not much here. I didn't really pay much attention, it from what I saw there were about 3 gift shops, car rental booth, and 2 places to eat, one of them closed. The one that was open was a restaurant & bar. We were told they were slow so we just grabbed a fixed sandwich and split it. On the other side of the security checkpoint is a stand that serves sandwiches and snacks. They also have beer. If we would have known this we would have skipped the sandwich at the other place and gotten one here. Since we were still hungry we got some Jamaican Patties. My wife got a beef and I the chicken. Both were good. The guy at the counter was nice. He was blasting some good house music. It was loud enough to provide the terminal with a soundtrack since there was nothing else to do but wait.
Regardless of the airline you are flying, everyone shares the same terminal gate. When they call out the flight, the. You get up and present your tickets and they escort the group out to the plane.
Biggest issue was the best. It didn't seem there was an A/C and there were no fans, so it got hot. Don't wear a lot of clothes and wear sandals so you don't bake. Overall though, not a bad experience. Everything went smoothly for us. read more
