Girona-Costa Brava Airport (Paperback)

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Girona-Costa Brava Airport is an airport located 12.5 km southwest of the city of Girona, next to the small village of Vilob d'Onyar, in the north-east of Catalonia, Spain. It is well connected to the Costa Brava, Barcelona and the Pyrenees. The airport was built in 1965 but passenger traffic was modest. The early 2000s saw passenger numbers grow spectacularly after Ryanair chose Girona as one of its European hubs. In 1993, Girona Airport dealt with only 275,000 passengers; but in the six years from 2002 to 2008 passenger numbers increased by nearly ten times from just over 500,000 to more than 5.5 million. In 2010, around 4.8 million passengers passed through the airport.
