I believe from reading local papers that the vast majority of passengers who fly into what Ryanair calls "Girona Barcelona" are NOT heading for "Barcelona" but for the Costa Brava which is far nearer than Barcelona. Now that the majority of FR flights are heading into Barcelona itself, it seems strange that FR has not dropped the second word from the title of our local airport. After all, everyone else calls it "Girona Airport".

Still, all quite theoretical as FR are pulling out of Girona almost completely - they are only waiting for the results of the Spanish national elections on November 20th to see if their ludicruous subsidy will be restored to them, or whether Girona will be privatised and the new owners will find a few billions to hand to MOL to persuade him to return there.

Dream on, Ryanair !
