Situated in the heart of the Costa Blanca, a prime tourist destination, it serves major cities in the province such as Alicante, Benidorm, Torrevieja, Calpe, Altea, and Jávea. It also serves several towns in the province of Valencia as well as the Region of Murcia, including Murcia, Cartagena, La Manga, and Mazarrón.
