Size and facilities
Large airports run multiple runways and terminals and handle millions of passengers a year. Queue times at check-in and security vary strongly by time of day; for international flights plan to arrive 2–3 hours before departure.
Terminal plans, check-in locations and ground-transport timetables are published by the airport itself; for detail that must be right on the day, rely on the airport's own information. If something here looks wrong, please tell us via the Contact page and we will check it.
Tips
- If your destination is not in the table above, you will usually connect via Ibiza Airport (IBZ) or another larger airport.
- Use the search box at the top of the page to compare alternatives: type a city name or IATA code.
- In peak season parking and rental cars run short at small fields too — book ahead if you are driving.
