Gib can be interesting

BA used to use the the 734 to GIB until ops switched to LHR from LGW 18 months or so back, with Southerly winds over the rock you can get a vortex at the North end giving a tailwind on either end! of GIB which of course is where the runway is, the go around can be complex due to Spanish airspace 150m North of the runway!!

Having said all that it's great fun! at least until you divert to AGP
