Car Hire Gibraltar Airport

Gibraltar International Airport or North Front Airport is Gibraltar's civilian airport. Although the runway is owned by the British Ministry of Defence, civilian operators use the civilian-operated terminal. Gibraltar Airport has a reputation as one of the world's most extreme airports, given that the main road leading to the border with Spain (Winston Churchill Avenue) must be closed to facilitate landings and take-offs because it cuts across the airport runway.

The main operator at Gibraltar International is Monarch,which operates three weekly flights to London Luton, Manchester Airport and Birmingham.EasyJet runs seven weekly flights to London Gatwick, and British Airways has nine weekly flights to London Heathrow. The airport is often used by passengers travelling to and from adjacent areas in southern Spain, including the Costa del Sol and Campo de Gibraltar.
