You may know we like bridges. But we also like airports. Not any old airports. Rather, ones that are a little unusual. And we think this one is more than a little unusual. Gibraltar  is a British overseas territory that is often mentioned in old war movies but barely rates a mention at the average dinner table. But if you ever flew into Gibraltar Airport you would have a story to tell. Not just because there is a great big rock out your window. It is unusual because it has a major road that crosses the main runway. When planes take off or land the traffic has to stop and likewise, planes cannot land unless the roadway is clear. This produces interesting times for pilots, passengers, drivers and residents alike.

The fun times are not going to last though. Due to increased air traffic from England a new road is under construction that will bypass the airport allowing the runway to be used without interruption. Book you flights soon.
