Why Murcia Travellers Prefer Mazarrón Car Rentals

Is It Better to Rent at Murcia Airport or in Town?

Guide to Murcia San Javier Airport Arrivals

A lot of people still search for Murcia San Javier Airport arrivals, but the truth is, that airport doesn’t have passenger flights anymore. It closed to commercial travel back in 2019. Now, all flights to this region land at Corvera Airport, which is just outside Murcia city. If you’re checking old websites or booking platforms, it’s easy to get confused. They often still show San Javier, but everything now runs through Corvera. Most people land there and head toward the coast places like Mazarrón, Puerto de Mazarrón, or Bolnuevo. And honestly, once you’re this close to the beach, it usually makes more sense to rent a car in town. Things are calmer here, and the roads are easier. We’re based in Bolnuevo, so we’ve seen how much smoother it feels for visitors when they pick up their car nearby instead of at the airport. No lines, no hunting for counters, no extra airport charges. If you’re coming this way, just tell us where you’ll be. We’ll make sure your car is ready when you arrive

What Happened to Corvera Airport and MJV?

Back in 2019, San Javier Airport (MJV) stopped handling regular passenger flights. Since then, all commercial air traffic for the region has moved over to Corvera Airport, which is now the main airport for Murcia. Airlines like Ryanair, easyJet, and Volotea run flights in and out of Corvera, connecting Murcia with major cities across Europe. So when you see something online that says Murcia Airport arrivals or even MJV arrivals, it’s almost always talking about Corvera now, not the old San Javier terminal. If you want to check live flights, the best source is the AENA website or apps like FlightRadar24. They’re up to date and easier to follow than outdated listings
