Spending the night inside the airport
Although the terminal is small and does not have many facilities, it is open 24 hours a day, so you can spend the night inside the enclosure and avoid extra costs for accommodation and transportation.
Where to rest: There are some benches without armrests ideal for lying down just before the check-in counters and some cushioned seats in a corner near the terminal entrance. There is also a VIP lounge with more amenities, although it closes at night. The nearest accommodations are within the city, about an hour from the airport.
Baggage: There are no places to leave luggage on the premises.
Eating and drinking: Available options close at night.
Wi-Fi: Free access.
Overnight stay at the airport
Can you spend the night at Cheddi Jagan international airport (GEO)? Opening hours, rest areas and services for long layovers. See also the airport guide for general information.
Services and opening hours can change. If you plan to sleep in the public area, have a plan B: some airports only let passengers with a flight stay overnight.

Tips for a long layover
- Check whether you can leave the airport: it depends on your nationality, the visa rules of Guyana and whether your bags are checked through.
- If you sleep airside, you will usually need a boarding pass for a flight that day. Ask your airline before you go through security.
- A lounge with day access can be cheaper than a hotel for a few hours: see VIP lounges at GEO.
- Keep your valuables with you, set an alarm and carry a light layer: terminals are often cold at night.
- Going to a hotel in town? See transportation from GEO (41 km to Georgetown), and check which services run at night.
