Seville, the capital of Andalusia, is a city full of history, culture, and vibrant energy. From the stunning Alcázar palace to the famous Plaza de España and the lively tapas bars, Seville has something for every traveler. If you’re planning a trip from the UK, getting here is easier than you might think. Here’s a complete guide on flights and travel tips to make your journey smooth and stress-free.

Flights from the UK to Seville

Seville Airport (SVQ) is well-connected to several UK cities, including London, Manchester, Birmingham, and Edinburgh. Airlines such as Ryanair, EasyJet, British Airways, and Jet2 operate direct flights, especially during peak tourist seasons. Flight times are usually around 2 hours and 45 minutes from London, making it a quick and convenient destination for a weekend getaway or a longer holiday.

Tips for Booking Flights

• Book early: Popular travel periods like Easter, Semana Santa, and summer can see flights fill up quickly. Booking in advance often saves money.
• Compare airlines: Low-cost carriers are great for budget travel, but full-service airlines can offer more flexibility and amenities.
• Consider nearby airports: Flights to Málaga or Jerez can sometimes be cheaper, and both cities are within 1–2 hours of Seville by train or bus.

From Seville Airport to the City Center

Seville Airport is located just 10 km from the city center, making it easy to reach your hotel:

• Taxi: Approximately 15–20 minutes and costs around €20–€25.
• Airport Bus (EA): Operates every 30 minutes, taking you directly to Plaza de Armas in about 35 minutes.
• Car Hire: Available at the airport if you plan to explore Andalusia beyond Seville.

Travel Tips for UK Visitors

1. Pack for the weather: Seville is hot in summer, mild in spring and autumn, and cool in winter. Light, breathable clothing is essential for sunny months.
2. Currency and payments: Spain uses the Euro. Most places accept cards, but having some cash for small purchases or tapas bars is convenient.
3. Language: Spanish is the official language, though English is widely understood in tourist areas. Learning a few basic phrases goes a long way.
4. Cultural etiquette: Respect local customs, especially during festivals like Semana Santa and Feria de Abril.
