Asturias OVD
Asturias Airport sits far enough outside Oviedo that the transfer, not the flight, decides your first day. If you are comparing cheap flights to Oviedo, this is the airport your booking will name. Links run to Madrid, Barcelona, Malaga and London, among other Spanish and British cities. After landing, check the transfer board, taxi rank and phone signal before walking out, because the airport sits well beyond the city and the first hour matters more than the flight. Buses, taxis and hire cars run into Oviedo, but evening arrivals can mean longer waits, so plan the onward leg before you land.

Getting to the city
The cheapest way into Oviedo is usually the airport bus, which drops you near the centre after a steady run along the main road. Taxis cost more but save time when you arrive late or carry heavy bags, while hire cars make sense if you are continuing beyond the city. Allow extra time in bad weather or at night, check the last departure before you land, and avoid assuming the terminal is close enough to walk anywhere useful.
