"toilets are the cleanest"

(Netherlands)

Trip Verified | The toilets are the cleanest I have seen I'm years. The customs was quick and efficient. I travel every year to Curaçao and was a pleasure to see that they are much better than Schiphol, Las Americas, American airports, European airports.

"will try to avoid this airport in future"

(Trinidad & Tobago)

Trip Verified | Be Aware! Arrival at the airport was okay, the immigration line was long but it moved pretty quickly. The airport was clean and looks pretty new. Our main problem with this airport, is the departure security check point, where you have to apparently place all liquids below the authorised limit in ziplock bags. Nowhere in the airport is there a sign saying that all liquids must be in clear plastic bags. The check in agent said nothing, nothing from the airline and did I say no signs. We got to security and were told to throw away our items or pay $1US per ziplock bag. If that didnt feel like an organised racket then I don't know what else qualifies. This type of action is dishonest in every respect, but at that point we had no choice. We've travelled through London Luton and they have the same plastic bag policy but not only are signs of it everywhere, they provide the bags. This felt like a shady scheme and we quite honestly will try to avoid this airport in future. P.S. Duty free alcohol was cheaper in out home country as well.

"40 minutes for the first bag"

(United Kingdom)

Trip Verified | Immigration reasonably quick and cheerful, baggage reclaim takes a long while. I know it’s a big plane and a small airport but waiting 40 minutes for the first bag to arrive is not really on. Particularly when there appeared to be no other arrivals. Departures worked like a dream. No queues for immigration or security so top marks for leaving.

"Very bad experience"

(Switzerland)

Trip Verified | The security check is very over zealous, threw my liquids away because I had no zip lock plastc bag in spite of the fact that I came back witha zip lock plastic bag bought 1 USD @ at Britshop. I had thus my medicine put in the trash. Is there any frustration from this people? No lounge for business travelers because of construction. A coupon instead, so you can have a beer. Very bad experience.

"departure was a disgrace"

(Germany)

Trip Verified | Arrival was okay, departure was a disgrace. Check-In at the drop-off counter went fast, but then we had to wait 45 minutes in a queue because there was only one person to check boarding passes for hundreds of passengers for two planes (there we two control counters, though, but the second was not occupied). Then we had to wait 30 minutes for the luggage checking (only two rows, one of which closed directly after us, and the last 40 or 50 passengers had to do with only one row. Then another 30 minutes queue at the passport control. We had not even been controlled yet when they already rung the last call for our flight. By the way, buy your Blue Curaçao in the duty free in front of the passport control. They had the lowest prices of the whole island

Curacao Airport customer review

(United Kingdom)

Departure hall clean, spacious and air conditioned. Well organised queuing system with KLM staff tagging hand baggage in advance to make check in run smoothly. Each airline had their own desk. Security fast, just remember to have your red immigration card. Food outlets fine but limited. Shopping limited as two shops sold the same items. Duty free had a good range of perfume and drinks but beware if you are European, and outside the Eurozone, prices are more expensive for cosmetics than what you would pay in High Street shops. Didn't fully investigate alcohol but you need to look carefully for offers and compare them to a local supermarket. We weren't travelling with children but I didn'notice any play facilities on offer. Seats OK. Arrival Hall just had fans, but didn't have to wait long for luggage. There are toilets in the baggage reclaim hall, these were clean and well maintained. For a small island a really good airport.

Curacao Airport customer review

(Netherlands Antilles)

Curaçao is an important hub in the Southern Caribbean. In terms of quality of services provided, facilities, friendliness of staff and officials, it doesn't come close to the level of other hubs, e.g. St. Maarten. Although some cosmetic upgrades were made, the facilities are in dire need of modernization. The food courts are a rip off, horrible menu items at exorbitant prices, taking advantage of your misery during long layovers and the usual delays, having no choice, but to purchase inferior nutrition. The air conditioning never seems to work properly and you have to be lucky to even log on to the public wifi. Forget about any business correspondence via email and seeking refuge in the below standard executive lounge. If you can, avoid the airport.

Curacao Airport customer review

(Czech Republic)

Flew in with AB from DUS. CUR is a small Airport that has drastically improved over the years overall it is looking great for its size. However it is clear the Airport cannot handle the traffic though I suspect This could also be poor planning. IC Flights to DUS and AMS open at the same time. Together with regional flights it's simply too much for the Airport to handle without impact on customer service and comfort. Massive queues everywhere. Check-In Security Immigration Toilets and even at the Shops etc. All because approximately 1000 pax are at the airport at the same time.

Curacao Airport customer review

A total drama in arrivals especially in the afternoon when KLM ArkeFly and Martinair arrive. There is only 1 luggage carrousel and you can imagine the mess. The airbridges often do not work and the paint of the building is already coming of. During rain seazon the whole checkin area is under water. This airport looks nice from the outside but is full of problems from the insite.
