Located in Belize City, the Philip S. W. Goldson Airport (PGIA), travel code BZE, is the only international airport in the country. From the moment that you disembark the plane onto the tarmac, you know you’re not in Kansas anymore. The tropical warmth and bird song let you settle into your Belize holiday at once.
International airlines that serve Belize are American Airlines, Avianca, Copa Airlines, Delta, Southwest Air, and United. With the recent addition of new airline carriers, the flight schedule in and out of Belize is more robust than in the past. Below is a table of the daily flights.

Not only are these flights a quick and affordable way to zip around the country, the views really can’t be beat. You’ll gain a greater appreciation of the Belize Barrier Reef as it hugs the shoreline of the country, and in less than 20-minutes, you’ll touch down in San Pedro.
