Air traffic tower control

Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (IATA: ALC, ICAO: LEAL), commonly known as Alicante Airport, is located just 8 km southwest of Alicante city centre and operates 24 hours a day, year-round.

In the heart of the Costa Blanca, one of Spain's most popular holiday destinations, the airport provides easy access to Alicante, Benidorm, Torrevieja, Calpe, Altea and Jávea. It also serves much of the Region of Murcia, including Murcia, Cartagena, La Manga and Mazarrón, as well as several destinations in the southern part of Valencia.

Although Valencia and Murcia both have their own airports, Alicante is the main international gateway to the Costa Blanca and one of Spain's busiest airports. It handles millions of passengers every year, with strong demand for leisure and low-cost travel. The United Kingdom, Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium, France and the Nordic countries are among its busiest markets, served by airlines including Ryanair, easyJet, Vueling and Norwegian.

Alicante Airport offers year-round domestic flights to Madrid, Barcelona, Palma de Mallorca, Ibiza, Menorca, Gran Canaria and Tenerife, together with seasonal services to destinations such as Santiago de Compostela, Bilbao and Seville.
