The Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández International Airport offers avant-garde architecture and exceptional versatility across its facilities, allowing production teams to recreate anything from high-traffic international airports to restricted technical zones and high-end commercial sets.

Description and Spaces

The Passenger Terminal (NAT) stands out for its open-plan design featuring large domes, abundant natural light, and broad vistas of glass and steel.

Passenger Areas: Aligned check-in desks, security checkpoints, retail and catering areas, open-plan boarding corridors, and corporate-style VIP lounges.

Exteriors and Infrastructure: Multi-level access roads, high-capacity car parks, a visually striking glazed façade, and an apron/airside area offering direct views of aircraft.

Technical and Restricted Spaces: Baggage reclaim systems, air bridges (fingers), and operational zones ideal for action sequences, chases, or logistics scenes.

Technical Specifications and Logistical Advantages

Natural Light: Large glazed openings that optimise lighting throughout the day.

Logistical Connectivity: Situated under 10 minutes from Ciudad de La Luz studios and Alicante city centre, enabling swift transfers for technical crews and cast.

Accessibility: Direct links via the N-332 road and the A-70 motorway. Parking available for production trucks and outside broadcast (OB) units.

Service Network: An ecosystem equipped to coordinate large-scale logistics, catering, nearby accommodation, and technical support.

Filming Permit Applications

Filming at the airport is subject to aviation operational safety regulations (AENA). Procedures, safety risk assessments, and permit management are handled directly through the airport itself.
