Hi All, For what it's worth in my opinion the new Corvera Airport will definately open early next year but i do not believe the passenger number predictions, to fly anywhere you have to have a reason, why would international travellers want to come to Murcia in any greater numbers than they do now ? Airlines normally follow demand - they do not lead it. The attractions Murcia has now are the Two cities of Murcia and Cartagena, the Mar Menor and the Golf Courses, not anything very different from the rest of Spain. Of course if the proposed Paramount Studios theme park does open that will be a whole new ball game, but i personally think the local authorities in Murcia responsible for tourism marketing would be better off looking to places like Russia and Scandinavia rather than the UK / Ireland for tourism growth. At the end of the day though our Corvera Golf Resort is very close to the new airport and any new traffic coming into the immediate area has to be very helpful for us, regardless of the numbers.

Yes Celia Garcia emailed us those pictures last week - looks great. Will be nice next year to have the option of jumping in a cab from the airport to the developement 5 minutes away. If you're planning to just relax on site for a few days you can take the cost of car hire out of the equation. Perhaps getting taxis from the developement into Corvera Town etc will be easier as well, since they'll be loads of taxis floating around the airport.

Corvera Airport not to be operational until October!
The UGT met with the workers at San Javier airport, and have promised to defend every last job in the event of the airport closing in favour of the new airport at Corvera. The UGT Union hopes that all of the 300 direct and indirect jobs at the airport can be transferred.
The Head of the UGT Union, Federico Lombardo, and Raul Gomez, Chief Union representative at AENA, met with the general secretaries of the TCM union, the Federation of Services (FES), and Public Services Federation (PSF), to discuss the move.
Lombardo also recalled that the UGT had predicted that San Javier airport may be forced to close when speculation about a new airport being built at Corvera first came to light some eight year ago.
However, Lombardo also claimed that AENA has confirmed that it is impossible for Corvera to be fully operational by March 2012, and that it is more likely to be October at the earliest, following significant structural changes being being to the original design and certain air navigation and procedural issues that still need to be completed.
