A Coruna Airport, known locally as Alvedro, is the compact regional airport serving the Galician port city of A Coruna in Spain's green northwest. It is a simple, modern, single-terminal airport eight kilometres from the city, and its small scale is its virtue: getting through it and into town is quick and painless.

## Flights and the terminal
A Coruna is a domestic-leaning regional airport: a handful of airlines, led by Vueling, easyJet, and Binter Canarias, connect it to around half a dozen destinations, with Madrid, Barcelona, and the Canary Islands the busiest routes. The single terminal handles both domestic and international flights with a simple, clear layout, and facilities include free Wi-Fi throughout, bars and restaurants, shops, and a VIP lounge. Two hours before a domestic flight and three before an international one is the standard arrival advice.

## Tips for A Coruna
Because Alvedro is small, connections are rarely stressful, but the flight map is limited, so many intercontinental itineraries route through Madrid or Barcelona first. If schedules do not fit, Santiago de Compostela's larger airport is about an hour away by road and often has more routes. Once in A Coruna, the Tower of Hercules, the world's oldest working Roman lighthouse, the beaches, and the glassed-in galleries of the Marina make the city worth more than a transit stop.
