Most of our overseas clients fly to Málaga Airport then drive to their holiday destination by hire car.
Málaga is, of course, a major international airport with flights arriving from all over the world. But new, local alternatives (such as Jerez or Granada) are sometimes closer to your destination and sometimes offer very competitive prices.
Booking
your flight It is impossible for us to keep track of flights from
every country in the world and we therefore ask you to book your flight yourselves.
Check airline internet sites or contact your local travel agent to check availability, times and prices.
For clients flying from the UK, there are links to various airline websites on our links page.
We will normally be able to hold an option on your holiday reservation for a couple of days whilst you get your flight confirmed.
Flight
times When booking your flight please bear in mind that when you arrive at your destination airport, you will still have a bit more travelling to do before you reach your holiday destination.
Car Hire We offer competitive rates for car hire from Málaga and other airports in Southern Spain. Full details are on our Car Hire page. |

Motorways
now link all the major cities in Andalucía (and beyond to Madrid and
Barcelona).
Local roads are usually in reasonably good condition, although expect some narrow and bendy bits in places!
The volume of traffic has increased significantly in recent years but is still very low in comparison with, say, the south of England. Excepting the Costa del Sol in summer, traffic jams are, thankfully, few and far between.
Public
transport in Andalucía is not, perhaps, the best in the world.
There are
regular fast bus services between the major cities and local services too, although
obviously these are more infrequent (and slower) in rural areas.
Train services
also link the major cities to the outside world but there are very few local rail services to speak of. A major investment
in the railway infrastructure within Andalucía is promised but it's a few
years down the line at the moment.
So travelling to your holiday destination by public transport is rarely convenient (for example, sometimes schedules do not coincide with flight arrival times, and it may be impossible
to reach your holiday destination on the same day). The other disadvantage of using only public transport is that touring around, visiting places of interest in the surrounding area is, of course, much more difficult. |
