Following a historic agreement between Britain, Spain and Gibraltar the first flight from Madrid to Gibraltar took place on the 15th December 2006 with full Spanish Media interests. The flight an Iberia A319 of 144 seats with 60 paying passengers as well as officials and journalists. The officials included Spanish secretary of State for foreign affairs, Bernardino León. This was the first time a Spanish government minister had visited Gibraltar since 1954. The officials who were met by Gibraltar's Chief Minister Peter Caruana and many Mayors from the towns of the Campo de Gibraltar were treated to lunch at the Rock hotel and a tour of the Rock.
GB Airways (flying as a British Airways franchisee) began operating the route between Madrid and Gibraltar but this was discontinued after a season, the Iberia flights stopped in September 2008. Andaluz Lineas Aereas also flew to Madrid and Barcelona until April 2010. It is hoped the new Spanish terminal, which is under construction and linking to the Gibraltar terminal, and including a dedicated Spanish exit will encourage demand on the Spanish routes.
The new Gibraltar terminal opened in November 2011 has a capacity for 1m passengers a year. The famous road across the runway will remain in place for pedestrians whilst vehicles will soon enter Gibraltar via a new tunnel under the runway at eastern Beach.
A petrol station is marked on the map and is located about 1km from the airport.
