As Valencia is the third largest city in Spain there has been continual development of its transport system to meet the increasing demands of the new millennium. This has seen the growth of the metro train network across the city providing a fast, cheap service to city dwellers and visitors alike.

Since officially opening in March 1933 Valencia Airport has steadily developed into one of the busiest airports on the east coast of the Iberian Peninsula. Almost 2.5 million passengers passed through the airport gates in 2003 travelling to and from the major destinations across Spain and Europe.

This large international airport is located eight kilometres west of the provincial capital city, Valencia, in the municipalities of Manises and Quart de Poblet. The airfield currently consists of two runways, an apron with space for sixteen commercial aircraft and a terminal building that is the first point of arrival for the majority of visitors to this popular region. The smart airport terminal boasts a number of modern facilities ranging from a comprehensive selection of shops, a pharmacy, three cafeterias, three restaurants, two currency exchange offices and banking services.

Forecasts predicting future growth indicate that Valencia Airport will handle over 3 million passengers by 2010. Plans are in place to extend and expand the airport to meet these requirements, including the extension of the current runway, terminal building and landing apron, and the construction of a new terminal building for regional aviation and a new cargo centre.

A bus fare to Valencia will cost €0.90 on any given day.
