San Javier Airport Murcia - MJV
Murcia Airport Overview
In June 2004 the terminal at Murcia Airport was expanded with prefabricated modules adding 1,100 square metres to the arrivals area. Two new baggage reclaim carousels were installed, as well as office spaces for four car hire companies and five shops.
In late 2006 the modifications to the terminal were completed. The number of check in desks was doubled to 16 with a lot more space for queuing passengers. The security check area was moved and is now 10 times its original size.
The airport is used by both civilian and military aircraft, and as a result is only available to civil flights after 15:00 on all weekdays. Weekends operate a normal full day.
In 2011 Murcia Airport handled 1,262,541 passengers with 12,711 flight operations. There is going to be a new airport in nearby Corvera which is in the process of being built and due for completion some in the Summer 2012.
When Corvera Airport does open all the passenger traffic from Murcia San Javier Airport will operate from there and Murcia wil revert back to being a military aircrart base.
