History
The airport was capable of accommodating international flights, provided the runway could meet the landing and take-off requirements of the aircraft. However, new requirements call for all aircraft to land at Seychelles International Airport and the passengers are then shuttled to the island by Air Seychelles.
Facilities
The airport resides at an elevation of 10 feet (3 m) above mean sea level. It has a grass runway designated 06/24 measuring 920 by 23 metres (3,018 ft × 75 ft)
