Pensacola International |
Pensacola International Airport (PNS): Located just 35 miles
east of Gulf Shores, is currently your best option. As a well-established
airport, it offers a range of domestic and international flights, serving as a
major transportation hub for the Gulf Coast. The airport features modern
facilities, excellent amenities, and a variety of car rental options. Its
proximity to the area makes it a popular choice for visitors, providing easy
access to the pristine beaches, renowned golf courses, and vibrant
entertainment options that Gulf Shores and the surrounding areas have to offer.
If you don’t want to rent a car for your stay, you can UBER, Lyft, or contact
one of Gulf Shores’ several PNS shuttle services in advance to have them
waiting for you when you land, and to take you back on your departure day. This
writer’s personal favorite shuttle service is CROZZZCABZ, which is run by local
Gulf Shores legend David Crosby (no known relation to the singer).
Gulf Shores International Airport: As an emerging airport, to
put it mildly, Gulf Shores International offers travelers a more localized
option. Located in Gulf Shores, just 4 miles from the beach, this airport provides a convenient and
efficient alternative for those seeking a closer arrival point. While it offers
an ideal landing spot for private and charter planes, it has recently begun
expanding with the addition of a control tower, runway improvements, and the
construction of a terminal. It may not yet offer the same extensive flight
options as Pensacola International, but it has recently announced the addition
of some new airline service providers that will offer direct flights between GulfShores and Atlanta, Nashville, and Baton Rouge, LA – with more expected in the
next year or two. So, it’s worth checking out Gulf Shores International Airport
as you make your plans to see if you could conveniently get here from where you
are.
