Queen Beatrix International Airport

The Queen Beatrix International Airport in Aruba was a pleasant surprise, as we were not expecting such a modern airport when we got there. The airport is located in Oranjestad and was named after the Dutch Queen and the Aruban Head of State which we thought was interesting.
The airport was bigger than we thought and catered for many flights throughout the day.

The airport was definitely better than when I went to Jamaica or Belize. I think the amount of tourism is really helping pay for the facility

What made the airport different from the others? This one is really interesting. Is this the only airport in Aruba? Are they using high technology gadgets as well?

It seems that Queen Beatrix is a first class airport. Is it one of the biggest airport in the world as well? The services will be first class as well. I can't wait to see this one.

Its good because tourism brings their money. They must impress everyone coming to the island to get them to come back again. Its an investment for them to have nice facilities

I just found out that there are flights to the Dallas area. That's near where I live! I won't have to go to another airport.
