## Description

ATC in the IATA register belongs to Arthur's Town Airport (ICAO MYCA) on Cat Island, one of the quieter outer islands of The Bahamas. Makers Air began scheduled service on 12 May 2026, initially Tuesdays and Thursdays, and the field was designated a scheduled port of entry — arrivals can now be cleared here, which helps freight as well as passengers. The airport still has no cargo terminal: goods travel as belly load in turboprops and charter jets, or by mailboat. The runway accepts turboprops plus light and midsize business jets such as the Citation XLS+, Learjet 75 and Phenom 300. For meaningful air freight volumes Nassau (NAS) remains the Bahamian gateway, while New Bight (TBI) is the second field on Cat Island, whose traffic shifts to Arthur's Town when it closes. The island is also the boyhood home of Sir Sidney Poitier.
