Several cafes and restaurants are found within a short drive along the main town roads.
- Check airfield NOTAMs carefully as Igualada/Odena has restricted hours and may require prior permission for some operations.
- If visiting during the European Balloon Festival (typically July), book accommodation well in advance as Igualada fills up quickly.
- Fuel availability is limited — confirm with the airfield operator before arrival if you require avgas or Jet-A.
