Online Reviews Summary
Travelers generally view Lynden Pindling International Airport (MYNN (NAS)) in Nassau, BS, with a positive sentiment, praising its modern facilities and cleanliness. The airport often exceeds expectations and is considered a stress-free gateway to the Bahamas, largely due to its efficient processes for US-bound travelers.
What Travelers Love
- US Customs Pre-clearance: A significant advantage for US-bound passengers, allowing them to complete all US immigration, customs, and agriculture inspections in Nassau before departure, bypassing these upon arrival in the United States.
- Expedited Security Options: The airport is the first outside the US to offer TSA PreCheck, and also provides Global Entry and Mobile Passport Control (MPC), which greatly reduce wait times for eligible travelers.
- Modern & Clean Terminals: Reviewers consistently highlight the airport's modern infrastructure and cleanliness, with spacious waiting areas and engaging local decorations.
- Friendly Staff: Many travelers commend the friendly and professional staff who contribute to a welcoming atmosphere and assist with navigation.
- Outdoor Patios: Both US and international departure areas feature post-security outdoor patios, offering a pleasant spot to enjoy the Bahamian sun before flights.
- Efficient Departures: While official guidance suggests arriving 3 hours early, many report quick processing for US departures, sometimes getting to their gate in under 30 minutes, especially with expedited services.
Common Complaints
- Arrival Customs/Immigration Experience: Some travelers report the arrival immigration and customs process can be "abysmal," with a need to fill out forms after landing and a lack of tables or seating. While often quick, delays can occur during peak times.
- Early Closures of Amenities: The food court and shops in the US departure terminal may close relatively early, around 6 PM, limiting options for later flights.
- Priority Pass Lounge Closure: The Graycliff Priority Pass Lounge was noted as closed as of 2024, though a Lignum Club Lounge is available for Priority Pass members.
- Taxi Information & Cost: Confusion regarding posted taxi rates (which drivers state are incorrect) and a lack of clear signage for taxi lines are common grievances.
- Limited Public Transport from Airport: There is no public jitney mini-bus service directly from the airport, leaving taxis and private transfers as the primary ground transportation options.
Overall, Lynden Pindling International Airport offers a generally positive and efficient experience, particularly for US-bound travelers benefiting from pre-clearance and expedited security options. While arrival procedures can occasionally be less smooth, the modern facilities, friendly staff, and unique pre-clearance feature make it a favorable entry and exit point for the Bahamas.

Ground Transportation
Taxis
Taxis are readily available 24/7 outside the arrivals hall of all terminals. Fares are regulated by the government and are based on a zone system to major destinations like Downtown Nassau, Cable Beach, and Paradise Island. It is advisable to confirm the fare with the driver before your journey begins.
Rental Cars
A dedicated Rental Car Center is located a short walk from the U.S. Departures Terminal. Major international companies like Avis, Budget, Dollar, and Hertz operate here. Pre-booking is highly recommended, especially during peak travel seasons. Note that driving in The Bahamas is on the left side of the road.
Public Transportation
The local public bus system, known as 'Jitneys', does not have a dedicated stop directly at the airport terminals. While it is a very affordable option, it is generally not convenient for travelers with luggage as it requires walking to a main road. Jitneys operate mostly during daylight hours and require cash payment (exact change is preferred).
