One of the World's Most Dangerous Airports

PRINCESS JULIANA INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT, 
ST.Marteen Islands, part of NETHERLANDS.


Princess Juliana International Airport serves Saint Maarten, the Dutch part of the island of Saint Martin. It is the second busiest airport in the Eastern Caribbean. 

The airport is famous for its short landing strip — only 2,180 metres/7,152 ft, which is barely enough for heavy jets. Because of this, the planes approach the island flying extremely low, right over Maho Beach. 

Despite the difficulties in approach, there has been no records of major aviation incidents at the airport
