Where you are
- The airport is in Le Lamentin, the commune on the plain at the head of the bay.
- Fort-de-France is about 12 km west, around the water.
- The bay crossing by vedette, the passenger boat between Fort-de-France and the Trois-Ilets side, is a common part of journeys here, though not from the airport itself.
The other stops
- Lareinthy, about 610 metres, with posts in both directions.
- C de Maintenance, the maintenance centre, about 690 metres.
- Gaigneron, about 1.2 km.
Practical notes
- Evening arrivals are not covered. Martinique takes long-haul flights from Paris that land late, and the buses have stopped by then.
- Taxis wait at the terminal and are the standard way into Fort-de-France on arrival.
- The airport is named for Aime Cesaire, the poet and long-serving mayor of Fort-de-France.
