=== Airports === [[File:Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport in Puerto Rico.jpg|thumb|[[Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport|Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport]]]] The [[San Juan–Caguas–Guaynabo metropolitan area|San Juan Metropolitan Area]] is served by two airports: The '''[[Luis Muñoz Marín International Airport]]''' (SJU), San Juan's primary commercial airport, is located eight miles ({{convert|8|mi|abbr=out|1|disp=output only}}) from [[Old San Juan]] in the neighboring municipality of [[Carolina, Puerto Rico|Carolina]]. The airport accommodates more than 30 domestic and international airlines and is the busiest airport in the [[Caribbean]]. It is often referred to as ''The Gateway to the Caribbean'' because it serves as the main connection to the island and the rest of the Caribbean for the United States and vice versa.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Caribbean International Airports|url=https://www.caribbeanislands.com/airports/|access-date=2022-02-12|website=www.caribbeanislands.com|archive-date=February 12, 2022|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20220212074427/https://www.caribbeanislands.com/airports/|url-status=dead}}</ref> The area's secondary airport is the '''[[Fernando Ribas Dominicci Airport]]''' (SIG), located directly across the [[San Antonio Channel]] (''Caño San Antonio'') from Old San Juan in the [[Isla Grande (Santurce)|Isla Grande]] district.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.prpa.gobierno.pr/APMain.aspx |title=Autoridad de puertos de Puerto Rico official website |language=es |publisher=Autoridad de Puertos de Puerto Rico |access-date=2007-05-08 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20091007181239/http://www.prpa.gobierno.pr/apmain.aspx |archive-date=October 7, 2009 }}</ref> Dominicci Airport is used mainly by general aviation aircraft, charter flights and some domestic commercial flights. It used to be the city's and also the island of Puerto Rico's main international gateway until the opening of Luis Muñoz Marin International Airport. It is now also widely used by the Isla Grande Flight School and Caribbean Flight Center, the only flight school on the island.
