✨ AI-Enhanced Insights

Nusatupe Airport (GZO/AGGN) serves Gizo, the capital of Solomon Islands' Western Province. It sits on Nusatupe Island, just east of Ghizo Island and connected to Gizo town by a causeway. The small airstrip handles Solomon Airlines turboprop flights and is a gateway to the Western Province's dive sites and lagoons.

💡 Local Tip
Keep a small amount of Solomon Islands dollars handy for taxi or boat transfers, and pack light—inter-island flights are often weight-restricted, so bags may follow on a later service.
🚖 Getting There

If you're continuing to outer islands, arrange boat transfers in Gizo or at the airport in advance. Confirm return transport with your driver or hotel, as services are limited outside flight times.
