Practical
Coordinate is Wikipedia's (OpenStreetMap maps the airport area at 26.5114, -77.0845). Codes MHH / MYAM; one runway 09/27, 6,100 ft, elevation 6 ft. Wikipedia lists American Eagle (Miami, plus seasonal Charlotte), Bahamasair (Nassau, West Palm Beach), Delta Connection (Atlanta), Flamingo Air (Freeport) and WesternAir (Nassau); schedules change, so check the airlines. The terminal opened in May 2014 with restaurants, shops and parking; the airport was flooded and badly damaged by Hurricane Dorian in September 2019. Bahamas Customs keeps an airport office (242-367-2026, marshharbourairport@bahamas.gov.bs), so private aircraft clear in here. Getting to the boats: taxis run from the airport to the marinas and to Albury's Ferry Dock for Hope Town and Man-O-War (Wikivoyage), and Rental Wheels delivers rental cars to the arrivals area, or to the gate at the Cherokee FBO for private flights, for a $15 airport fee (year not stated, verify locally).
