What is the Airport Like?
The airport is a reasonably modern regional airport which has a small amount of facilities, enough to keep you from boredom before you board your flight. There’s a single newsagent which has a variety of packaged snacks and drinks plus newspapers and magazines. There’s no duty free but if you’re looking for gifts you’ll find some in the newsagent shop. Eating at the airport is quite limited and all you’ll find is a small basic café with an uninspiring range of toasted sandwiches and rolls. No Wi-Fi facilities exist at the airport and you’ll also have to wait until you get into the city for some cash.
