Mar

A few more flight options are now available into Southern Catalonia. The brand new airport Lleida -Alguaire situated about 15km North of Lleida was officially opened January 2010. The airline Vueling operated the first passenger flight from there to Paris on 5th February.  Vueling will also be operating routes to Palma Mallorca.  Ryanair will also operate routes from Lleida to Frankfurt-Hahn and to Milan-Bergamo.  Lleida airport will give access into the inland area of Aragon, Huesca and Andorra as well down into the Southern corner of Catalonia. From here in Mora d’Ebre, Lleida is just the same distance as Reus airport so it will be great if destinations in the UK are added.  Talking of Reus -  Jet2 start a twice weekly flight to Reus from Manchester from the end of May. It will only be operational in summer but it is a welcome addition for people travelling from the North of England.
