Granada Airport is located about 16 Kilometres west of the city near the small town of Santa Fé. The access to the airport is directly south from the A92 Seville motorway.

Sometimes from Liverpool or Stansted, it is possible to book incredibly cheap flights to Granada over the internet, with Ryanair -

However, even though in kilometres, it doesn't seem much further than Malaga 80km, it will take a longer journey time, as the roads are not motorway.
But it is a worthwhile trip, as you can travel through the Alhama Spa, which was used by the Romans and the Muslims, and is a beautiful sight-seeing journey, of approximaly one and a half hours.
