          • Found by closing my eyes, opening the atlas to a random page and putting my finger down.



            Its on an island. The name of the airport also has Island in its name.

            2 runways. The longer one being between 5,000 and 6,000 feet.

            1 airline serves it, 2 destinations.

              • There is a much larger island close to it, which is also its own province in the country its part of.

                  • No.

                    The large island near this smaller island which has the airport in question is very well known for being the home of a certain animal.

                    The Straight shares its name with a fish, but its also the last name of the guy who sailed through it in 1798-1799.

                    In fact the island and airport in question is named after the man who was sailing with him.

                          • This airport was previously named after the gentleman from whose name another country in the same continent was taken.
