L.F. Wade International Airport, formerly known as Bermuda International Airport, is the sole international gateway to the island of Bermuda, situated on the northeastern tip near St. George's Parish. Named after Lois Frith Wade, a prominent Bermudian politician, the airport underwent a significant redevelopment completed in 2020, delivering a modern terminal facility managed under a public-private partnership. It serves as a critical link for tourism and business travel, connecting Bermuda to North America, the United Kingdom, and the Caribbean.
- Main Terminal — A single modern terminal opened in 2020, handling all international arrivals and departures with updated retail, dining, and customs facilities.
- Public bus routes connecting to Hamilton city centre and other parishes
- Licensed taxi services available at the arrivals forecourt
- Rental car desks operated by local agencies near the terminal
- Ferry connections from Hamilton Docks to various island points (not direct from airport)
- Private car hire and hotel shuttle services by prior arrangement
- Grotto Bay Beach Resort
- St. George's Club
- The Loren at Pink Beach
- Rosewood Bermuda (Tucker's Point)
- Swizzle Inn (accommodation nearby)
Inside the terminal, travellers will find a modest but comfortable selection of cafés, bars, and grab-and-go options reflecting Bermudian hospitality, with the redeveloped facility improving food and beverage offerings compared to the old terminal. The nearby town of St. George's, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, offers charming local restaurants serving Bermudian staples such as fish chowder and rockfish. Hamilton's diverse dining scene, about 20 minutes by taxi, provides a wider range of international and local cuisine options.
- Bermuda has no car rentals for visitors — motorised scooters and electric vehicles through licensed operators are the primary self-drive option.
- Pre-arrange a taxi or hotel shuttle as ride-share apps like Uber do not operate in Bermuda.
- The island uses the Bermudian dollar, which is pegged 1:1 to the US dollar, and both currencies are widely accepted.
- Clear customs and immigration efficiently by ensuring all required travel authorisation and arrival card documentation is completed before landing.
