Most could easily have walked in the time it took to load the bus but it is what it is and could change daily depending on number of planes and arrival timing.

If you end up there I doubt they’d let you walk. Closer IDK. However even with two planes arriving at about the same time we were out of the terminal in about a half an hour. Dolfer

We arrived midweek and we were very conveniently parked close to the terminal within what would have been a short walk but we were asked to board the bus. It wasn’t a big deal and we cleared the airport very quickly but this was a midweek arrival and a light plane load at that. I really don’t recall if there were many other planes but I’m thinking a few. Welcome to the island......enjoy your stay.
