Overnight stay at the airport

Can you spend the night at Menorca airport (MAH)? Opening hours, rest areas and services for long layovers. See also the airport guide for general information.

Overnight Terminal Closure

It is not possible to spend the night inside Menorca Airport because the terminal does not operate 24 hours a day and closes completely after the final scheduled flight operations. The closing hours run from 10:30 pm to 6:00 am in the winter season, and from 1:00 am to 6:00 am in the summer season. Once flight operations conclude, airport security staff clear and lock the building; passengers are not allowed to remain inside under any circumstances.

Overnight Services and Alternatives

During the night-time closure period, no cafés, shops, or check-in desks remain open. The airport does not have public shower facilities or luggage storage lockers. Travellers departing on early morning flights or arriving on late-night arrivals are advised to book overnight accommodation in Mahón or in nearby countryside hotels.

Services and opening hours can change. If you plan to sleep in the public area, have a plan B: some airports only let passengers with a flight stay overnight.

Hotels at and near MAH

There are no hotels or dedicated sleeping cabins inside the Menorca Airport terminal. In addition, surrounding hotels do not operate scheduled complimentary airport shuttles; transfers must be made via official taxis or public bus Line 10 into the city of Mahón.

Tips for a long layover

  1. Check whether you can leave the airport: it depends on your nationality, the visa rules of Spain and whether your bags are checked through.
  2. If you sleep airside, you will usually need a boarding pass for a flight that day. Ask your airline before you go through security.
  3. A lounge with day access can be cheaper than a hotel for a few hours: see VIP lounges at MAH.
  4. Keep your valuables with you, set an alarm and carry a light layer: terminals are often cold at night.
  5. Going to a hotel in town? See transportation from MAH (4 km to Menorca), and check which services run at night.
