Transfers and Terminal Layout at Bridgetown Airport
The simple and largely open-plan terminal has only a ground floor.
If you are facing the terminal, arrivals are on the right and departures are on the left, with check-in desks that are partly located in an open-air hall.
A single security check takes you into the transit area, which is shared by all departing flights. There is no passport control when departing from Barbados.
Connecting flights
Barbados Airport serves as a major transit hub, for example to the Grenadines and the surrounding smaller Caribbean islands.
Even if your flights are on a single booking, you must go through immigration and passport control, leave the airport, walk 50 metres to the departures area and check in again.
However, the procedure is not lengthy and takes no more than around 30 minutes. You will also need to collect your luggage and check it in again, with the exception of certain flights operated by LIAT or Caribbean Airlines.

what is the security check at bridgetown airport?
is there a hold baggage check on entering the airport?
There is no baggage check when entering the terminal from the outside.
And security screening between the public and transit areas is standard. We departed during peak times and the line was 5 minutes at most.
