Praslin Island Airport, is a vital aviation facility nestled in the picturesque Grand Anse region of Praslin Island within the Seychelles archipelago. Known alternately as Iles des Palmes Airport, this gateway plays a pivotal role in connecting Praslin Island to the broader Seychelles and the rest of the world. Air Seychelles, the nation’s flag carrier, serves this airport, offering scheduled flights to Mahé, the largest island in the Seychelles, and charters to various other Seychellois islands. With a daily passenger handling capacity exceeding 1500 and catering to over half a million passengers annually, Praslin Island Airport stands as a critical transport link for locals and tourists alike.
The airport’s history is marked by a significant expansion during the late 1990s, a response to the increasing passenger traffic and the need to accommodate larger aircraft. This renovation, which came at a cost of approximately 40 million Seychellois rupees, was instrumental in transforming Praslin Island Airport into a modern and efficient facility. On June 3, 2001, the airport was officially reopened, marking a new era in its operations. This investment not only enhanced the airport’s infrastructure but also ensured that it could meet the growing demands of travelers seeking to explore the beauty of Praslin Island and the surrounding Seychellois archipelago.
Praslin Island, with its stunning beaches, lush tropical landscapes, and vibrant marine life, attracts travelers seeking an idyllic tropical getaway. The airport’s strategic location and improved facilities have made it easier for visitors to access this paradise, setting the stage for unforgettable experiences in the heart of the Seychelles. Whether you’re planning to explore Praslin’s unique attractions, including the famous Vallée de Mai Nature Reserve, or use it as a springboard to discover other Seychellois islands, Praslin Island Airport is your starting point for a remarkable journey in this tropical paradise.
