Want to land here?

The Juancho E. Yrausquin Airport has one of the shortest runways in the world at 1,312 ft (400 meters). It’s way too short for a jet to land and will only allow small propeller aircraft landings. Not only is it short but both ends of the runway drop off into the sea and on one side are high hills and on the other a cliff edge.

Chances are that you will never have to land there. But just so you know, it is located on the island of Saba in the Caribbean – an island that belongs to the Netherlands with a population just under 2,000.

The island is also home to a potentially active volcano — Mount Scenery.
