I never even knew this airport existed. I might have to try this one sometime soon. Cool topic!

Wonderful little flight! I’m beyond excited for this route to commence next year! AAs E175 Caribbean flights are a lot of fun I recommend checking out Ocho Rios, Tortola, and South Caicos there’s a few more that aren’t 3D but are still fun if you haven’t already!
