Torrevieja connecting to Alicante Airport by Bus?

Can you tell me please if there is a bus service in place yet from Alicante Airport to Torrevieja ? There was talk of one being started last year by Costa Azul Buses. I dont know if you were aware that Alicante Airport has the dubious distinction of having the worst public service transport in Spain.

Hello John,
Sorry for answering late, really busy here.
I went to the airport yesterday (brought my mum to her flight back home to Germany), and checked again at the Alicante airport tourist information and at the airport info desk. Both times I got the same answer:

“There is NO direct Bus from Alicante Airport to Torrevieja at the moment”

Update May 2011 – YES ! – We finally got a bus service from Alicante airport to Torrevieja. Runs several times a day. For details on pricing , timetable , and bus-stops go here to the Alicante airport to Torrevieja bus page.

Or, you just get a taxi or hire a car.

Its sad that spanish public transport can’t still get there acts together and provide any decent bus shuttle service from the Alicante Airport to Torrevieja.

But , who knows who’s special interests this serves ( would not be bad to be a taxi driver i guess .

Still shaking my head about this… let’s not give up hope.

Best Regards,

Hubert
