Taxis are readily available just outside the arrivals hall of the terminal. Fares are regulated by the government with fixed rates to various destinations on the island, including Kingstown and major hotel areas. A fare board is typically displayed, but it is always recommended to confirm the price with the driver before starting your trip.
Several car rental agencies operate at Argyle International Airport, with service desks located in the arrivals hall. Options include international companies like Avis and respected local providers such as Drive-A-Matic and Sam's Taxi and Tours. It is advisable to book in advance, especially during peak season. A temporary local driving permit is required and can be obtained through the rental agency.
Public minibuses (often called 'vans') are the most common and affordable form of public transit. There is no formal bus stop directly at the terminal; passengers typically need to walk a short distance to the main road to flag one down. These vans run on routes to Kingstown and other parts of the island but do not operate on a fixed schedule. This option is best suited for travelers with light luggage.
Thank you for the comment. There is an NDB (and possibly a colocated DME) on the island, both according to our database and to the Skyvector chart, but no sign of a VOR. Perhaps it would be best to get in touch with the airport or the national aviation authority for more information.
I have notice that the information page for Navigation for TVSA is missing. For example TVSA VOR information is missing, while other nearby airports VOR are listed. Is TVSA VOR inop? Or is it that no importance is given to ensure the web-page reflect the correct information for people in the aviation industry that will seek out this page for correct and up to date information for airports in St. Vincent & the Grenadines?
