Henry E Rohlsen Airport

Henry E. Rohlsen Airport (IATA code: STX, ICAO code: TISX), formerly known as Alexander Hamilton International Airport, is a small international airport that hosts mainly inter-Caribbean flights. Located six miles (10 kilometers) southwest of Christiansted on the island of St. Croix in the United States Virgin Islands, the airport covers an area of 1,455 acres (589 ha) and has the capability to receive jets up to the size of the Boeing 747s.

Virgin Islands Port Authority, the owner of the airport, had begun the Henry E. Rohlsen Airport Terminal Expansion and Modernization Project as of September 2020. The improvements to the terminal will be completed in four phases over a six-year period. Phase one entails enclosing 5,500 square feet of walkway space to increase the seating capacity in the lounge, refurbishing the existing passenger lounge space and restrooms, enclosing the 1,100 square-foot open-air gardens with a new roof structure to provide additional concessions space, and upgrading the mechanical systems for the additional air-conditioned area. Phases two through four include the addition of a second level to accommodate jet bridges, additional hold room, concession and retail space, improvement of passenger flow and baggage handling in the terminal; redesign, expansion, and modernization of the interior of the terminal to make the best use of the existing floor plan; the addition of vibrant, tropical landscaping; and changes to improve the flow of vehicular traffic.
