Flying from Tampa International
Tampa International is regularly ranked among America's best-loved mid-sized airports for its compact, easy-to-navigate design — a single landside terminal connected to four airside satellites by people movers. There is no rail to downtown Tampa; the SkyConnect automated train links the main terminal to a consolidated rental car centre. Southwest, Spirit and Allegiant compete hard on price for theme-park-adjacent leisure traffic. International long-haul reaches London (BA), Frankfurt (Lufthansa) and seasonal Zurich (Edelweiss).
Arriving in Nassau
Lynden Pindling International on New Providence is the Bahamas' main airport, 16 km west of downtown Nassau. Taxis to Nassau and Paradise Island cost $30–$45 (fixed government rates). The route from US East Coast cities is heavily seasonal — peak winter demand (December–April) keeps fares high, with much cheaper shoulder windows in May–June and September–October when hurricane season risk pushes rates down.
