Flights to Barcelona
Which airport to land at, how far each is from the centre, and where the routes go. Live fares are booked here.
Barcelona is served by 2 airports with scheduled flights within 100 km. The closest large one is General José Antonio Anzoategui International Airport (BLA), 3 km (2 mi) from the centre, with a longest runway of 9,842 ft, which limits it to short and medium-haul aircraft. The alternatives are Antonio José de Sucre Airport (CUM, 70 km).
| Airport | Code | From centre | Longest runway | Elevation |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| General José Antonio Anzoategui International Airport | BLA | 3 km (2 mi) | 9,842 ft | 30 ft |
| Antonio José de Sucre Airport (regional) | CUM | 70 km (43 mi) | 10,171 ft | 14 ft |
Runway length is a practical tell: at 9,842 ft, BLA handles short and medium-haul aircraft, so a long-haul trip will connect somewhere else first. The airport sits at 30 ft; that is low enough that altitude never restricts departures.
