Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport (IATA: AXA, ICAO: TQPF) (formerly known as the Anguilla Wallblake Airport) is a small international airport located on the island of Anguilla, a British Overseas Territory in the Caribbean. It is located very close to The Valley, the island's capital. Wallblake Airport is also a featured airport in one of the demos for Microsoft Flight Simulator X. It has a small terminal with no jetways and is the only airport in Anguilla.
The airport became known as the "Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport" on 4 July 2010.
