San
Pablo Airport (SVQ)
Many
major airlines and their partners including Northwest/KLM, American,
Iberia, US Airways, and British Airways service the airport in Seville.
San Pablo Airport is only a 25-minute drive to the Hotel Alcora.
Most flights coming from the US and Europe will have a stopover
in Madrid or Barcelona.
The airport
is small with only one main hallway, which exits baggage claim.
Baggage claim is separated into two different areas, Sala A &
Sala B, both with only one conveyer belt. Attendees coming from
European Union (EU) countries will collect their luggage from Sala
B (main area). Other attendees coming from Non-EU countries (i.e.,
US and Russia) will collect their luggage in Sala A, which is directly
to the right of the main baggage claim area through a set of doors.
For those who collect their luggage in Sala A, you will need to
go through a small customs area. All attendees will end up in the
main hallway outside baggage claim.

HIV Drug Resistance Workshop shuttles will be clearly marked and

years of age or 23 years of age depending on the car rental firm.

recognized road signs.
