Federico García Lorca Granada-Jaén Airport, named after the poet born in nearby Fuente Vaqueros, lies west of the city, on the Granada plain. It is a medium-sized airport, with mainly domestic flights and some European links, and the most convenient one for visiting the Alhambra, the Albaicín and the Sierra Nevada.

Practical tips
- Documents: EU citizens only need a valid identity card or passport.
- Aena: almost all Spanish airports are run by Aena; its website offers car parks to book online at lower prices.
- Canary Islands: the islands are outside the EU VAT area, so customs allowances apply to some purchases on the way back.
- Taxis: in cities, fares from the airport are often fixed or include an airport supplement; ask before getting in.
