(Redirected from W.H. Bramble Airport)
'W.H. Bramble Airport', also known as 'Blackburne Airport', was a small international
airport near the southeast coast of the island of
Montserrat, a
British Overseas Territory in the
Caribbean.
Named after Montserrat
Chief Minister William Henry Bramble, the airport was located near the now-abandoned capital of
Plymouth. The facility was destroyed in 1997 by an eruption of the nearby
Soufriere Hills volcano. For several years afterwards, Montserrat had been only accessible by helicopters or boats until July 2005 when the new
Gerald's Airport was completed on the north end of the island.
Bramble Airport had used the
IATA airport code 'MNI', but this has now been transferred to the new Gerald's Airport.
