The Falkland Islands are a gorgeous archipelago, or group of islands, in the Atlantic Ocean, just east of Argentina.

Arriving at the Airport
MPN Airport is fairly small and will not be difficult to navigate. The island's capital city is quite far away, at about 53 km northwest. A taxi ride will take over an hour. Unfortunately, you will have to make the trip all the way to Stanley to find a hotel or lodge as any towns along the way are generally too small to offer housing accommodations.
Mount Pleasant Airport Facilities
Mount Pleasant Airport is primarily a military base. The airport, therefore, has many amenities, like gyms, pools, and libraries. However, they will be restricted to military personnel use. Flights into MPN will also generally be filled with military personnel, so book early to ensure availability. At the airport, there is a small café for drinks and light snacks.
