## Description

Andalusia's gateway to the world is Málaga: with around 25 million passengers in 2024, Málaga-Costa del Sol Airport (IATA: AGP, ICAO: LEMG) ranks as Spain's fourth-largest airport and the only one in the country's south with a dense European and intercontinental network. Since its second runway opened in 2012, the airport has held capacity reserves many Mediterranean airports lack. Airfreight nevertheless stays modest — a few thousand tonnes a year, mostly express and courier traffic plus belly cargo on scheduled flights; a cargo terminal with customs clearance stands ready, and Swiftair ties Málaga into Spain's nightly mail and express network. Andalusian exports needing airlift — strawberries and vegetables from Huelva and Almería, spare parts, electronics from the Málaga TechPark — mostly truck to Madrid-Barajas. The surrounding economy is striking: the Andalusia Technology Park, with Google's cybersecurity centre and hundreds of IT firms, has turned Málaga into a tech location with growing express volumes. Forwarders reach the airport, eight kilometres southwest of the centre, via the A-7 coastal motorway and the MA-20; a Cercanías commuter train links terminal, city and Torremolinos every 15 minutes.
