With newly improved and expanded facilities, the St. Christopher Air & Sea Ports Authority is poised to take St. Kitts to the forefront of international tourism and trade. A statutory corporation formed by the Government of St. Kitts & Nevis in 1993, the Authority provides the gateway to St. Kitts, operating the Port Zante Cruise Ship Terminal, the Robert Llewellyn Bradshaw International Airport, the Basseterre Deep Water (Cargo) Port and Ferry Dock. This network creates a powerful stimulus for international trade, tourism, and long-term economic expansion, ultimately boosting the Federation’s development.
