NASSAU, Bahamas -  The public is advised that effective Tuesday, October 16th, there will be changes to traffic flow at the Lynden Pindling International Airport. There will also be changes to boarding procedures for passengers travelling to non-US international destinations.

Next week Tuesday, the new International Arrivals terminal will open for operation at LPIA. Stage three construction will also commence. As a result of this, the public is advised of the following traffic changes which take effect on October 16, 2012:

Members of the public will now access the International Arrivals Terminal from the Windsor Field roundabout leading to the US terminal, drive past the US Terminal and proceed to the new International Arrivals terminal. (See attached map for details.) 

The public will continue to access the Domestic and International Departures Terminals from the airport entrance closest to Coral Harbour Road.

The road leading to the Domestic and International Departures Terminals will now be open to two-way traffic. As such, the motoring public is advised to observe and obey all traffic signage in order to ensure peaceful co-existence of all users, motorists and pedestrians.  

The public is also advised that persons checking in for International flights (i.e. those traveling to Canada, the United Kingdom, the Caribbean and Latin America) will check in as usual in the current International Departures terminal and be processed by Security. After screening, passengers will be bused out to the pier in order to await their flight in brand new hold rooms. Please make the necessary arrangements to arrive at the airport in sufficient time to be processed and board your flight.  

We appreciate the public’s full understanding, cooperation and patience as we continue to transform LPIA into a world-class airport.
