  • June, July, and August are the busiest months at Cheddi Jagan International Airport. July and August align with the North American summer break, when the Guyanese diaspora typically returns to visit family. June marks the start of this travel surge, and the drier conditions across much of the country support tourism activity.

  • March, April, and November are generally the quietest months at Cheddi Jagan International Airport. March and April fall outside the main diaspora travel window, and Guyana's rainy season begins to take hold around this period.
