Hi Folks 

Thinking of purchasing a car in Alicante next year and was wondering what costs are involved for leaving at Alicante airport.

Probably use car approximately 5-6 times a year.

Thanks in advance 

Stephen

Just look at any of their websites from Google Maps. I use EcoParking. 250 euros per year with unlimited 24 hour pick ups and drop offs.

Hi Stephen

I use the company "aquacar".

I pay 240 euros a year with I think 8 transfers to the airport (3 minutes).

Some companies have unlimited transfers.

I have seen 230 euro and 250 euro advertised by competitors but they are all pretty much the same.

Aquacar have very friendly staff.

Regards

Paul

Many choices Stephen & it’s a very competitive business there. Have used a few over the years & currently use Noro parking near the airport @ €249 for the year. Only one we’d problems with was Eco. A couple of friends use Plane & are very happy with them too.

In the past I have recommended Plane Parking at Alicante airport. They have always been reliable, the car is delivered clean and they pick up and drop off at the airport departure car park, they have no limits on the number of pickups/drop offs.

 However they have just raised their costs this year to 355euro, up from 320euro last year and 300euro 2 years ago. I am looking around to see if this is still good value.

The going rate was about 350 till a year or so ago when lots of new ones opened and got very competitive with prices.  Wouldn't be surprised if they all go back to that level before long.  1 euro per day still seems like a bargain to me.

hi,

   I have to disagree, I have been with PP since 2018, it was 300 euros until 2022 when it went to 320 and now 2023 it is 355. It may be good value at 1 euro a day but the charge has gone up nearly 20% in 2 years. 

 Perhaps others have put their costs up as well and it may be linked to increased charges from Alicante airport, but I'll look around to check. Service wise they are still excellent.

I have been with Eco parking for over 2 years now. It has been 250€ / year and not went up. Excellent service with unlimited drop offs and pickups.

Hi,

   thanks for the recommendation. Can I ask - how do you find the transfers between the airport and the car parking, are they waiting for you? do the transfers take long? 

Rgds,

Aitch.

I call them just after getting our passports stamped as we don’t have luggage. They are either there or we wait 2 minutes for them. It’s then 2 or 3 minute drive to your car. Coming back you just drive to there car place and the mini bus is usually there or again wait a couple of minutes.
