About Lynden Pindling International Airport

Lynden Pindling International Airport lies in the temperate mid-latitudes at 25.04° N, 77.47° W, on America/Nassau time (UTC-4).

Lynden Pindling International Airport has 2 runways. The longest, 14/32, measures 11,353 ft by 150 ft, which puts the field in the long-haul capable category: widebodies operate comfortably, though the very longest sectors may need a payload trade. The surface is asphalt. Both are lit for night operations.

Runway 14/32 is aligned roughly south-east/north-west, which is the clearest hint you get about the prevailing wind here: runways are built to face the wind that blows most often, because aircraft take off and land into it. With 2 runways across 2 different headings, crews can pick whichever best suits the wind.

The runways are not interchangeable. 10/28 is 8,273 ft against 14/32's 11,353 ft, a difference of 3,080 ft, so the shorter one generally takes regional traffic while the longer handles anything heavy.

At 16 ft the field is effectively at sea level, which is the friendliest case for aircraft performance: maximum lift, maximum thrust and the shortest takeoff runs an aircraft is capable of.
