Getting Spain

Spain has many international airports, including Madrid, Barcelona, Bilbao, Santiago de Compostela, Seville, Granada, Málaga, Almería, Alicante, Valencia, Palma de Mallorca, Ibiza and Maó. A departure tax applies when flying out of Spain, but this is included in the price of the ticket at purchase. There are regular bus services to Spain from all major centers in Europe, including Lisbon, London and Paris. Traveling to Spain by train can be more expensive than by bus unless you are under 26 or have a rail pass.

Getting around within Spain is best done by bus; the bus network gives you better coverage and more miles for your dollar than the rail system. There are plenty of bus routes serviced by dozens of independent companies, and the bus network is more extensive than the train system and cheaper. Ferry services connect Spain directly with the UK and Morocco. Ferries regularly connect the mainland with the Balearic Islands, but flying is a better choice considering the time saved. The only time you might seriously consider flying within Spain is to get out to the islands. From Barcelona, Valencia and Alicante, there are often good deals on charter flights.
