Are there concessions for permanent residences in buses and trains?
Are there discounts for resident pensioners to go from Alicante airport by bus to Alicante rail station and then by train to Madrid. If so where can we apply? Many thanks

Very helpful member
Renfe have an over 60s card - tarjeta dorado- you can get. You can get it from a train station , or through a travel agent who will charge an admin fee. Ours ended up being 10 each but we got that back on the fare reduction. You can save up to 40% if I remember correctly .
