Alicante–Elche Miguel Hernández Airport (ALC) serves as the main international gateway for the Costa Blanca, functioning as a mid-sized hub for leisure and seasonal traffic rather than a major global hub. Low-cost carriers and charter airlines typically dominate routes, though a handful of legacy carriers operate year-round connections. The airport sits about 9–12 km south of Alicante city centre; taxi rides usually take 15–25 minutes and can be moderately priced, while the frequent tram-line linking the airport to the city and surrounding towns takes roughly 20–25 minutes with low fares. Pros: compact terminal, straightforward transfers and plentiful budget flight options. Cons: can be busy during summer months and services can be oriented toward short-haul leisure passengers.
Bilbao Airport (BIO) serves as the main international gateway for Spain’s Basque Country and typically functions as a mid-sized hub with a mix of legacy and low-cost carriers—common airlines include Iberia, Vueling, and several European budget operators. It sits about 12 km (roughly 20–30 minutes by car) from Bilbao city centre and is well connected by bus, taxi and private transfer; the regular A3247 airport bus takes around 25–30 minutes and can be an economical option. Trains are not direct, so buses or taxis tend to be preferred for punctuality and convenience. Expect prices to be mid-range compared with larger Spanish hubs: budget fares are often available on short-haul routes while some long-haul or last-minute trips can be pricier. Pros are compact terminals and efficient passenger flows; cons can include limited late-night public transport options and occasional congestion at peak times.
