Bermuda's sole international gateway serving the North Atlantic.

Opened

Location
Hamilton, Bermuda
L.F. Wade International Airport is the only commercial airport in Bermuda, serving the island territory located in the North Atlantic Ocean. It handles the majority of Bermuda's visitor arrivals and is a critical link connecting the island to destinations in North America, the United Kingdom, and the Caribbean. The airport was renamed in 2007 in honor of Lois Frederick Wade, a Bermudian politician and public servant. A major redevelopment project, led by a Canadian consortium under a public-private partnership, resulted in a new terminal building that opened in 2020, significantly modernizing passenger facilities. Due to Bermuda's geography, the runway extends over water on both ends, making it one of the more distinctive airfield configurations in the world. The airport is operated under a long-term concession agreement and plays a vital economic role for the island's tourism and business sectors.
Terminals
The airport has a single modern passenger terminal that opened in 2020, replacing the previous aging facility and offering updated retail, dining, and customs facilities.
Getting to & from
Ground transportation from the airport to Hamilton and other parts of the island is available via taxi and bus, with no rail link on the island.
