SVG Air is a national airline of St. Vincent and the Grenadines, along with Mustique Airways.

Flight checks are provided by an approved training captain from one of the following local companies: Mustique Airways or SVG Air.

It was proposed to realign the existing runway[5] at the northern end of Mustique Island to minimize the effects of elevated terrain features near the flight path.

The excavation of soil and rock from high ground in the central quarry area and engineered fill placement at the low lying east and west ends of the runway are required to provide an appropriate runway gradient.

The geotechnical reporting includes the subsurface investigation findings and recommendations for (a) sub excavation and/or soil improvement of the weak swampy materials comprising wet, soft clayey silt and organics in the west; (b) excavation of overburden soils and soft rock (volcanic tuff) and blasting and excavation of hard rock (grey andesite) in the middle high ground and quarry; and (c) additional subgrade preparation and engineered fill placement in the east section near the seasonal pond at Rutland Bay.

A small single-story terminal building on the southeast processes passengers and baggage and also serves as the customs and immigration area with an attached two-story control tower.

A small paved apron allows aircraft passengers to embark and to disembark.

There are no operations during twilight period; Mustique's airport does not have runway lights so it closes before sunset and there are no exceptions.
