Airport Pointe-a-Pitre Le Raizet

Point-à-Pître International Airport has been operating since 1965. The airport is located in the city of Point-à-Pître on an island of Guadeloupe. Another, often used, name of the airport is Le Raizet Arpt. There are two terminals for the use of travelers. Point-à-Pître is the main hub for two airlines: Air Caraïbes and Air Antilles Express. Other carriers, such as Air Canada, Air France, American Airlines, Corsair, Norwegian or KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, and Delta, also operate their flights from the airport. The travelers can choose one of the connections within the national network or fly to Europe, North America, South, Central America or the Caribbean. The airport serves both scheduled and charter flights.

Point-à-Pître Airport is only 3 km north of the city center. Completing this route doesn't take very long and travelers have several means of transport to choose from. There are car rentals and taxi stands at the airport. You can also use the public transport services of the KARU'LIS network (Infoline 0590 24 26 06). On the airport's website, there is a downloadable file where you can find the current bus timetable as well as possible routes to choose from. It is worth remembering that on Saturdays, connections are less frequent, and the last course from the airport is provided after 5 p.m. Due to the fact that the distance between the airport and the city center is small, many hotels offer airport transportation.

The airport has an assigned parking area with a short and long term parking zone. The travelers, apart from a one-time use of the service, can also buy annual, semi-annual or quarterly packages. The car parking lot area requires payment by card (e.g. Visa, MasterCard), and ticket machines are available for the visitors. For losing a ticket, a fee of 150 euro must be paid.

The airport has two terminals, the first one is more developed. On the premises of terminal number 1 (level 0), there is an information point where we can find out more about the flight we are interested in. There is also a tourist information point, ATM, bank, currency exchange, post office, pharmacy or a point where you can get medical assistance. The terminal has a separate business area, ideal for business meetings or relaxation. The air-conditioned space can accommodate 20 people, but the airport also offers a conference room for 60 people. Terminal 1 houses boutiques, duty-free shops, as well as restaurants and cafes, and car rentals. Terminal 2, on the other hand, has a more modest restaurant area, but travelers can buy drinks or sandwiches. A free WiFi network operates throughout the airport.
