๐ข Terminal Information
Caye Chapel Airport (CYC) is an exclusive private aviation facility located on the luxury resort island of Caye Chapel, approximately 20 kilometers off the coast of Belize. Situated at the southern tip of this narrow and beautifully manicured cay, the airport serves as the primary arrival point for high-end travelers and guests visiting the island's world-class facilities. As a private airstrip, it provides a seamless and direct connection for those seeking privacy and rapid access to one of Belize's most prestigious island destinations.
The airport's physical infrastructure is centered around a single asphalt runway, designated as 18/36, which measures approximately 992 meters (3,255 feet) in length. This runway is capable of accommodating most light to mid-sized general aviation aircraft and turboprops used by regional carriers like Maya Island Air. The airstrip is characterized by its stunning approach over the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, offering passengers a spectacular first impression of the island's lush landscape and white sand beaches.
Ground operations at Caye Chapel are handled with a high degree of professionalism, with specialized services often provided by JetMate Aviation. These services include personalized ramp handling, baggage assistance, and coordination of customs and immigration for international arrivals. While the airport does not have a traditional passenger terminal building, arriving guests are typically met and whisked away to the island's centerpiece: a magnificent 25,000-square-foot clubhouse that functions as a central hub for reception and guest services.
The amenities surrounding the airport reflect the island's status as a premier luxury destination. In addition to the massive clubhouse, guests have immediate access to an 18-hole championship golf course, a full-service marina, and a variety of upscale dining and spa facilities. The integration of the airstrip into the island's broader resort landscape ensures that the transition from flight to relaxation is near-instantaneous. For those traveling by private charter or regional flight, Caye Chapel Airport offers a level of convenience and exclusivity that is unmatched in the region.
