Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (ALC) is the airport for Alicante, Elche and the Costa Blanca, in the Valencian Community, Spain. It sits at El Altet, in the countryside of Elche, about 9 km (5.5 miles) southwest of Alicante city and about 10 km east of Elche, close to the coast.
Ryanair, easyJet, Jet2, Vueling, Norwegian and Wizz Air fly most of the routes. The biggest market is the United Kingdom, followed by the Netherlands, Germany, Belgium, Poland, Norway and Sweden, and domestic flights go to Madrid, Barcelona, Palma, Bilbao and Santiago de Compostela. In 2025 the airport handled almost 20 million passengers.
All flights use a single terminal, opened in March 2011; the two older terminals have been closed since then. The terminal was built with space for a future railway station and tram stop, but there is no rail link yet.
From the airport, most travelers head into Alicante, south to Santa Pola, Torrevieja and the Orihuela Costa, north to Benidorm, Altea and Calpe, or inland to Elche and Murcia.

Flights from other Schengen countries arrive without passport checks. If you come from outside the Schengen area, as many passengers here do from the UK, you queue at passport control, where non-EU visitors are registered in the EU's Entry/Exit System. Queues can build in summer when several UK flights land together.
After baggage claim, follow the signs out to the arrivals roadway. Official taxis, white with a green stripe, board on the right side of the roadway, and Uber and Cabify pick up on the left. Bus C6 runs to Alicante city center around the clock, every 15 minutes from 6:00 to 23:00 and hourly overnight. Hourly buses also run to Benidorm, Torrevieja, Santa Pola, Guardamar and Murcia, and local buses serve Elche and the nearby beaches. Pre-booked drivers usually meet you in the arrivals hall.
