Gibraltar Airport

Gibraltar Airport (LXGB) is a large airport in Gibraltar, U-A, Gibraltar. Pilots and dispatchers reference it by ICAO code LXGB or IATA code GIB. It sits in Europe.

Gibraltar Airport is a commercial-airline hub that also handles a steady stream of private and corporate traffic. Mixed commercial and private operations mean planners should expect slot coordination, handling agent involvement, and the usual international hub procedures.

Gibraltar Airport sits near sea level at 12 ft.

Local operations run on Europe/Gibraltar. Because the field hosts scheduled airline operations, private operators should expect a defined slot environment, possible CDM coordination at peak banks, and limited ramp availability during major event weekends. Booking FBO ramp space in advance is normal practice.
