St Kitts Robert L Bradshaw International Airport – Arrivals
Airport Overview
There are no Jet bridges in St Kitts Airport; you descend the airplane steps and walk around the edge of the runway to reach the arrivals hall.
Enjoy the great view of the hills and the ocean as you walk to the arrivals hall.
The St Kitts Robert L Bradshaw International Airport reflects the atmosphere and culture of our island. It is compact, easy to navigate, and arriving is usually a pleasant and straightforward experience, especially if you take note of our advice and tips.
Please do not wear any clothing or carry any bag with a camouflage pattern. All camouflage items are illegal in St Kitts except for defense force personnel.
Arrivals, Customs, and Immigration Procedure
Please note that from May 2025, St Kitts and Nevis will require all travellers to complete an online ETA form.
You can access the application at https://www.knatravelform.kn/en or, even easier, download the e-Border St Kitts and Nevis app.
The application also includes a customs declaration
There is normally no need to wait in line for a document check, just walk through the “Welcome to St Kitts” arch and facial recognition does the rest!
There are toilets/bathrooms in the baggage hall, but no other facilities.
The distance from the luggage conveyor to the exit is so short that no luggage carts are available; however, there will be porters available to you if you need help.
Collecting Luggage and exiting the airport
Luggage in hand (or with one of our porters), you walk past the customs officers, showing them your St Kitts Customs and Immigration form, and just a few steps take you through the exit door.
The St Kitts airport sits on an elevated site, so take a moment to appreciate the view of the Caribbean Sea. Your vacation has started, and from this point on, you are a guest on our island, so remember when in St Kitts we “rush slowly.”
