Hello,
I’ve been trying to book buses on ALSA’s website and it keeps on failing to complete the transaction: just getting a turning circle after I put in the card details. Is this a common problem or should I buy a tin foil hat?
 
Down bag (90/10 duvet) of 700 fills with 180 g (6.34 ounces) of filling. Mummy-shaped structure, ideal when you are looking for lightness with great heating performance.

€149,-
I also had trouble last year while I was in Spain trying to book on the Alsa website on my phone. I downloaded their app, and it was easier.
 
@Ian Afloat, it may be a problem with your browser. ALSA's site, and particularly it's calendar doesn't like auto-translated numerals. Once you have identified all your necessaries use the Spanish language site to make your booking.
Or just buy your ticket at the bus station or even on the bus. Unless you are planning to travel on a peak holiday weekend or at the end of a University term there will rarely be any need to book more than an hour or two ahead of your journey.
 
The 2024 Camino guides will be coming out little by little. Here is a collection of the ones that are out so far.

Yes that happened to me yesterday. I ended up buying my ticket for more money on another website.

The first edition came out in 2003 and has become the go-to-guide for many pilgrims over the years. It is shipping with a Pilgrim Passport (Credential) from the cathedral in Santiago de Compostela.
