Maurice Bishop International Airport — Saint George's, Grenada

Named in honor of the revolutionary prime minister assassinated during the 1983 coup that later triggered a US-led military intervention, GND was originally constructed as Point Salines International Airport with financial and engineering assistance from Cuba, a detail that became politically controversial at the time of the invasion. Today the airport serves as Grenada's principal air link to the outside world, welcoming visitors to an island nation famed for nutmeg and other spices, earning it the nickname "Spice Isle." Located near the capital, Saint George's, the airport primarily handles Caribbean regional connections alongside scheduled flights from North America and Europe that support the island's tourism-dependent economy. Renamed in the early 2000s to honor Bishop's legacy, the facility remains a modest but essential gateway for an economy built on beaches, diving, and agricultural exports.
