Girona-Costa Brava Airport (IATA: GRO, ICAO: LEGE) is an airport located 12.5 km (7.8 mi) southwest[1] of the city of Girona, next to the small village of Vilobí d'Onyar, in the north-east of Catalonia, Spain. It is well connected to the Costa Brava, Barcelona and the Pyrenees.The airport was built in 1965,[citation needed] but passenger traffic was modest. The early 2000s saw passenger numbers grow spectacularly after Ryanair chose Girona as one of its European hubs. In 1993, Girona Airport dealt with only 275,000 passengers; but in the last six years the number of passengers increased ten times from 557,000 in 2002 to 5,507,000 in 2008.[2]Many people use Girona Airport as an alternative airport for Barcelona, though the airport is 92 km (57 mi) [3] north of Barcelona. Passengers can transfer to Barcelona by bus or taxi from the airport, or by train from Girona railway station.Ryanair have a major base here. It is Ryanair's third largest in Europe and from May 2010 Ryanair will operate 62 routes from Girona
