It starts off as a queue at the stop but when the bus arrives they demand to get on first....I've seen mothers with babies being pushed aside
Hi,
I have travelled by bus numerous times from Alicante airport to Torrevieja the last five years and I have never experienced anything like what you describe.
Kind regards,

I have tried twice to get on the 16.00 bus & there's always 2-3 plane loads if people trying to get on the bus & its hit or miss whether you can manage to get on......not worth the hassle!!!
Perhaps if the bus company introduced more buses or reinstated the 15.00 bus it might be alleviated!

Hi,
That sounds like a hazzle and boring waiting one more hour for the bus. I hope that now when people are starting to travel more they will go back to one bus per hour all day long preferably to 10 or 11 in the evening, but I guess that is too much to hope for.
Kind regards.

Hi Jane,
Exactly, I had to pay 82€ the last time I visited, too late for any bus to take me further.

Certainly a different cost, hey?
What times do the buses run from? Have you any idea.

Not as often as before the pandemic. For now the website says: 8.00 - 10.00 - 12.00 - 14.00 - 17.00 - 19.00 - 21.00.
