Marsh Harbour International Airport

Big changes at Marsh Harbour International 

Marsh Harbour International Airport (MHH) is one of two airports that serve the Abaco Islands of the Bahamas and is the more popular of the two. In 2009, Marsh Harbour put in a new 6,100 x 100-foot runway and will use the old runway as a taxi for planes. Also recently, Marsh Harbour is adding a new terminal to their growing airport. A new terminal, air traffic control tower and fire/crash facility will be added.

“Abaco’s population has grown 21 percent in the past 10 years, and this airport will benefit Abaco and all of the Bahamas,” said Bahamian Prime Minister Hubert Ingraham in the report.

Along with charter flights, like Cherokee Air, American Eagle, Bahamasair, Locair, SkyBahamas, United Express and Western Air are all commercial airlines that fly into Marsh Harbour. Destinations from

Marsh Harbour include Miami, Nassau, Fort Lauderdale, Jacksonville, West Palm Beach and St. Petersburg.

Cherokee Aviation is a Fixed-Base Operator at Mash Harbour.

In 2001, Marsh Harbour International airport was the site where R+B singer Aaliyah was killed in a plane crash at the airport. The cause of the crash is unknown, but it's obvious the airport has moved on from the tragedy. 

Treasure Cay Airport is the other airport that serves Abaco.
