Vitoria airport is located six kilometres from the centre of the city and is linked to it by a dual carriageway.
Its communications and links to the main road and railway networks have made this airport especially attractive
for cargo traffic.
With runways of almost four kilometres in length, it is equipped with modern and safe navigation assistance
systems that facilitate its operation under all kinds of meteorological conditions.
It is open 24 hours a day and has a border inspection post and veterinary and food inspection services.
Its control tower handles an increasing number of regular and charter flights, although the main activity of
Vitoria-Gasteiz airport is characterised by its constant goods traffic, making it one of the major cargo
airports in Spain.
Cargo aircraft belonging to leading companies in the world of international transport, such as the "Antonovs"
or "Boeing 747's"-, use Vitoria-Gasteiz airport as the base for imports of fish and fruit from Africa. Its installations also cater for the re-export of horticultural and industrial products from the Iberian Peninsula.
