Decently sized airport considering the small island that it serves. Actually, I was a bit surprised (in a good way) with all of the amenities that were offered at an airport of this size I found that the airport was pretty clean and easy to manage especially if Spanish or Catalan is not your primary language. I have to admit that I was quite surprised that there was smoking lounge inside of the airport. It was kind of nice because the lounge had an exposed room so the lounge was not super smokey (and there was even a coffee bar inside of the lounge). Also, the airport has plenty of comfy waiting area with nice sofas which I think used to be unused VIP lounges. I thought staff (e.g., ticket agents, security agents, and restaurant servers) were pretty nice, friendly, and helpful. All in all, I had a pretty awesome experience with this airport. read more

Small airport given the small but beautiful island it serves. When we arrived Thursday afternoon it was empty . A bit more life on our departure Sunday afternoon. We rented a car and our drop off was quick and seamless. Just enough for cafes/restaurants. There is a cafe and WH Smith on the lower level and a bigger Cafe/restaurant on the 2nd. Also saw a pharmacy. Once you clear security these was a decent sized (given the size of the airport) Duty Free Shop. More restaurants (3 cafes and a Pastis spot) and some general merch shops & speciality bakery) Security check was quick and easy. Our agents were friendly and helpful. Overall, a smaller airport that packs a surprising amount of amenities given its size. read more

Compared to the Islands of Ibiza and Mallorca, Menorca is the quiet island within the Balearic chain. And so is its small airport. It's kind of like Kauai compared to Maui or Oahu in Hawaii. At the same time, flights come and go frequently, either domestically from Barcelona, or internationally from France or the UK. During our subsequent travels on Menorca, we heard a lot of French, and ran into a lot of Brits. On the Arrivals side, our bags came out fast, rental car pickup was an easy walk, and we were out on the road before you could say "Bob's Your Uncle". Plus it wasn't crowded at all. On the Departure side, Petrol stations were close by for the rental car and airport access was straightforward. Thins were a little more crowded, but that was all manageable. The longest wait was for the Vueling counter to open, as we arrived relatively early. The subsequent Security and Boarding lines were relatively short and sweet. Once we were past Security, the commercial area was a little tight, including a division between those of us heading out domestically to Barcelona, and the French and Brits et. al. who had to pass through passport control. And what were the tourists heading home purchasing at the airport as a last minute gift purchase? A. A variety of delicious Menorca baked goods in ornate boxes tied with a string. read more
