History

Menorca Airport

The airport was opened on 24 March 1969 when all civilian services were transferred from the neighbouring San Luis Airport.

On 14 September 2006 a partial roof collapse occurred in the new part of the terminal undergoing construction work. The collapse may have been caused by a build-up of heavy rain water. The debris temporarily trapped 20 and injured three workers.[4][5] A major refit of the airport was finished before the start of the 2008 season. It now has 16 gates, five of them linked by jetway to the main terminal building.
