Notes on Murcia-San Javier MJV.

There are easier places in Spain, notably PMI, BCN and MAD. I will put this in Good, the catch is that this airport is almost solely dedicated to flights to the UK and Ireland, so almost everyone clears Schengen on arrrival. Schengen on departure is (kind of) done at the departure gate and is inconsequential. There are no airbridges, or buses, you walk off the aircraft and walk to immigration. Boarding also involves queuing up and boarding on foot.

On arrival you will be led to the side of the building where passport checks are done in an extension building. The airport is all on the ground floor, so you then bear leftwards back towards security at the other end of the building, a distance of approximately 120 metres. Security seems well organised. You are then through to a single departure hall from which all departures take place through a series of gates along the apron.

Fairly safe, the only concern would be if the summer peak when mutiple LCC are also being processed at the same time.
