Michael Galbraith, Station Manager at Barra Airport said: “Barra is famed for its spectacular scenery and its unique beach landing strip, giving passengers a spectacular view of our beautiful island.

“When competing against the world’s airports, we are really happy to have made it through to this point in the competition. We may be a small airport, but we have a lot to offer and hope that visitors and locals to Barra will vote to push us into the top ten!”
The poll for the top ten favourite airport approaches for 2011 will be open until Friday, November 25th, 2011.
