The Bahamas government has signed a management agreement for the improvement and operation of the South Bimini International Airport with Bimini Airport Development Partners.
Bimini Airport Development Partners, a company jointly owned by Phoenix Infrastructure and Plenary Americas, is in collaboration with airport operator Avports. Together, they are working on enhancing the South Bimini Airport. This partnership aims to improve the airfield and upgrade terminal facilities, allowing the airport to handle additional international and domestic commercial flights while enhancing customer service. The estimated cost for the redevelopment project is US$80 million. The development rights of the airport have been transferred from the Airport Authority to the Bimini Airport Development Managing Partners. These improvements ensure a positive initial experience for visitors arriving in Bimini and a memorable departure experience for travelers leaving the island.
