Spanish airport
Gran Canaria Airport (IATA :LPA ,ICAO :GCLP Spanish :Aeropuerto de Gran Canaria ) is a passenger and freight airport on the island ofGran Canaria , Spain. It is owned and managed by a public enterprise, AENA, and it holds the sixth position in terms of passengers, and fifth in terms of operations and cargo transported. It also ranks first of theCanary Islands in all three categories, although the island ofTenerife has higher passenger numbers overall if statistics from the two airports located on the island are combined.[ 5] [ 6] [ 7] [ 8]
The airport is located in the eastern part of Gran Canaria on the Bay of Gando (Bahía de Gando), 19 km (12 mi) to the south[ 9] Las Palmas , and 25 km (16 mi) from the popular tourist areas in the south. In 2014, it handled over 10.3 million passengers, ranking 1st in the Canary Islands and 5th in Spain by passenger traffic.[ 10] Binter Canarias ,Canaryfly ,Ryanair ,Norwegian Air Shuttle andVueling . Other airlines use it as a base to operate charter flights to Cape Verde and Gambia (TUI fly Deutschland andTUI fly Nordic ), but only in the winter.
In 1919, Frenchman Pierre George Latécoère was granted clearance from the French and Spanish governments to establish an airline route between Toulouse and Casablanca. This also included stopovers inMálaga ,Alicante andBarcelona . The airport opened on 7 April 1930, afterKing Alfonso XIII signed a royal order announcing that the military air force installations on the Bay of Gando would become a civilian airfield. In its existence, the airport has become the largest gateway into theCanary Islands , as well as the largest in terms of passenger and cargo operations, although the island ofTenerife has higher passenger numbers overall between the two airports located on the island.[ 5] [ 6] [ 7]
In 1946, the old passenger terminal opened, which took two years to build.[ 11] [citation needed
In 1963, improvements to the airport were made. This included new parking spaces, enlargement of the terminal and the provision of avisual approach slope indicator system . In 1964, a transmission station was built. In 1966 a new control tower was completed, replacing the old control tower that was constructed in 1946.[ 12] [ 12]
On 18 February 1988,Binter Canarias announced that the airline's main base was to be established at Gran Canaria. The base opened on 26 March 1989.[citation needed In October 1991, the terminal was enlarged with improved facilities so it could handle more passengers.[citation needed
In December 2010, low-cost carrierRyanair announced the opening of 3 new bases on the Canary Islands.[ 13] Lanzarote andTenerife South . Ryanair presently operates 30 routes from Gran Canaria. The airport was an official alternative (emergency) landing site for theNASA Space Shuttle , before the ending of the Space Shuttle programme in July 2011.[citation needed
As of 2011, there was a programme to expand the airport, extending the terminal and creating a new runway.[ 14] [when? of a new runway for the airport.[citation needed

Ground transportation [ edit ] The airport can be reached by several island roads from all points in the island. Bus services are provided by Global with their routes 5, 60, 66, 90 and 91.[ 12] [better source needed . There are also special bus services from most towns in Gran Canaria, but access by taxi is usual.[citation needed
Gran Canaria's main motorwayGC1 runs past the airport providing transport links to Las Palmas de Gran Canaria in the North and to the tourist resorts in the South.
Plans have existed for several years to construct a rail link connecting the airport to Las Palmas and Maspalomas. As of 2018, theTren de Gran Canaria scheme was estimated to be underfunded by €1,500 million.[ 169]
TwoF-18s of theSpanish Air Force taking off from Gando Air Base, which shares space with the airport There is an airbase of theSpanish Air and Space Force to the east of the runways. Beyond several hangars opposite to the passenger terminal, the Gando Air Base (Base Aérea de Gando ) contains ten shelters situated on the southern end of the eastern runway. They harbor theAla 46 withF/A-18 Hornets ,CASA 212 and theEurocopter AS 532 of SAR.[ 170] Ala 46 or 46 Wing, composed of 462 and 802 fighter squadron, defends the Spanish airspace around the Canary Islands. It is one of the biggest and most important air bases of the Spanish Air and Space Force and is unique for the wide variety of aircraft which it operates.
Military activity was most intense during the mid-1970s, at the time of the crisis of decolonisation of Western Sahara and its occupation by Morocco. Military crises in Western Africa, like the 2013 Mali intervention by France, made Gando Air Base the main air platform for operations in Western Africa area by NATO. In 2006 Spain proposed Gando Air Base as headquarters for the newly created US Africa Command (AFRICOM), but the AFRICOM HQ was ultimately based in Stuttgart (Germany).
TheCanary Islands Air Command (Mando Aéreo de Canarias –MACAN ) is based in the city of Las Palmas. Canary Islands Air Command is the only territorial general Air Command Air Force in Spain; its mission is the maintenance, preparation and command of air units located in the Canary archipelago.[ 171] [ 172]
The deployment base of Gando Air Base is the Lanzarote Military Airfield (Aeródromo Militar de Lanzarote). Lanzarote Military Airfield has permanently its own Air Force troops platoons and the radar for the air defence (the EVA 22, which covers the Eastern Canary Islands and the maritime area up to the Sahara), but it has no permanently based military planes, using the ones from Gando.
Canaryfly has its head office in Hangar L.[ 173] Binter Canarias also has its head office on the airport grounds.[ 174]
MPAIAC bombing and Tenerife disaster [ edit ] At 1:15 PM on 27 March 1977, a bomb planted by theMovement for the Independence and Autonomy of the Canaries Archipelago (MPAIAC) exploded in a florist's shop on the terminal concourse. Fifteen minutes of warning was given to the airport authorities,[ 175] [ 176]
