Is EAS easy to connect through?
San Sebastian Airport is a small single-terminal regional airport with only a handful of daily domestic flights, mostly to Madrid and Barcelona, so genuine 'connections' in the hub sense barely exist. Passengers rarely need to transit here since almost all traffic is point-to-point; if a connection is ever booked, the tiny terminal makes it trivial. There is no real international schedule to speak of, so this is fundamentally a domestic Spanish airport. There is a single small terminal building with one level for check-in, security, and the gate area, so all 'transit' is on foot and takes only a few minutes. There are no shuttles, trains, or terminal transfers of any kind, and no re-screening is needed since passengers never leave a secure zone to reach another terminal.
