FLIGHT TO SPAIN, THE COSTA BLANCA Our area, on the South-Eastern coast of the Spanish mainland, is mid-way between Alicante & Valencia airports, with flight times from the rest of Europe taking between one and two hours. :- ALICANTE AIRPORT is a vast, major holiday destination airport serving many surrounding resorts, and many airlines operate services there, as do an increasing number of low-cost budget airlines. Future expansion includes a second terminal. Traveling time to the resort is about 1- 1¼ hours' drive, door to door, via good coastal motorway route North. VALENCIA AIRPORT has traditionally been for schedule airlines to this the third largest city in Spain, but now has increasingly been included with routes from low-cost budget airlines flying to this destination from the UK. Traveling time to the resort is about 1½ hours' drive, door to door, via good coastal motorway route North. MURCIA AIRPORT is about 150km further on from Alicante. Traveling time to the resort is about 2½ hours' drive, door to door, via good coastal motorway route.
THE SECRETS TO ONLINE BOOKING There are no golden rules to booking flights. Low-cost airlines sell cheapest tickets first then crank up prices as seats are sold, where others may reduce prices nearer the travel date. So check prices over a period of time e.g days, weeks, dependant on departue date. Look at both Alicante and Valencia as although Valencia is a little longer drive, sometimes airlines do cheaper deals.
