Melilla Airport

Melilla Airport, serving the Spanish enclave on the North African coast, first opened in the mid-20th century and today operates from a single compact terminal that handles mainly domestic and short regional flights. As Melilla’s primary air link to mainland Spain, it’s small but important for business and leisure travelers, offering frequent connections to cities like Málaga and Almería via regional carriers. The airport is a short taxi or bus ride from the city center and close to the Moroccan border, making transfers simple though rail options are absent. Fares are generally moderate but can rise with limited competition; Air Nostrum (Iberia Regional) and other regional airlines dominate services rather than large network hubs.
