Exuma International Airport is a public, customs-designated airport serving Great Exuma in the Bahamas, situated near Moss Town some 15 miles northwest of George Town, the island's main settlement. It handles a mix of scheduled regional jet services from the United States and Canada alongside general aviation traffic, with an FBO on the field for private and charter operations.

The airport has long served as the principal air gateway to Great Exuma, supporting both light aircraft and regional jet services from the United States, Canada, and within the Bahamas. In recent years the Bahamian government has undertaken major redevelopment, with a $44 million (later reported as $65 million) project begun around 2021 to build a new terminal, fire station, taxiway, and apron improvements adjacent to the existing airport, aimed at establishing Exuma as a hub for passenger and cargo traffic in the southern Bahamas.
The airport continues to operate as a public and customs-designated field serving Great Exuma, with a terminal and boarding area handling scheduled carriers including Bahamasair, American Eagle, Delta Connection, and seasonal Air Canada and American Airlines services. General aviation is supported by an FBO, Odyssey Aviation, which provides direct ramp access for private and charter flights. Ongoing government-funded redevelopment includes a new terminal building, fire rescue facility, and runway and taxiway upgrades intended to expand the airport's capacity as a regional hub.
