Caye Caulker Airport (IATA: CUK, ICAO: MZCK) is an airport that serves the island of Caye Caulker, 20 kilometres (12 mi) off the coast of Belize. After Maya Island Air and Tropic Air suspended service to Caye Caulker in 2017 due to the dangerous condition of the runway, the airport underwent a BZ$3.6 million renovation that included asphalt pavement and runway lighting.[2]
