I think that the OP was asking if it goes from the bus station, which unless anything has changed in the last year, it does not. I got a flea in my ear from "customer services" at the bus station when I asked.

I've not used the bus (I use a taxi to get to the airport), but it can be caught on the main road outside the bus station.

Also, the driver prefers cash.
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Just for clarification for the asker, is "outside the bus station" on the bus station side of the central transportation center or on the train station side outside by the main road (meaning you walk from the bus station turn right and go through the train station area to the main road? If memory serves it is on the main road

That's the one in Rua de Horreo! It's called Praza De Galicia, but it's a bit south of the Praza , in Rua de Horreo itself.
It's a bit confusing because the airport bus stop used to be in the Praza itself and some websites have not been updated with the new location.

Sorry for being a pain does the bus coming from airport stop in Rua de Horreo or is that the departure point for airport.

Rua de Horreo is one-way (northbound, away from the railway station) for the most part. I haven't taken the bus from the airport, but the timetable shows it going via Praza de Galicia, then Rua de Rosa and then Horreo. There is a 6A bus stop right outside the station on Horreo. Which way are you going?

OK - Assuming Muxia bus goes to the Intermodal (i.e. bus and train) station, take the 6A to the airport. Simples.

Coming from the airport, best stop is probably Virxe da Cerca - Praza de Abastos 2. That's the one @Bradypus mentioned at #6 above. You can find Rua Vilar from there?

Hi all,

Sorry, a bit confused. Sleeping in Albergue Estacion. What is the nearest stop for bus 6a? I am a bit confused by ‘Horreo (Estacion)’ in the schedule - google maps shows a few different options.

Also, is it for sure you cant get a bus from the bus station itself? Bus lines to Lugo (XG802) show Labacolla airport as a bus stop on the lists (bus.gal), however when trying to get it through Monbus site - nothing comes up. Is it another bus company?
