    Ryanair and cabin bags?

    I have a 30l pack and always take it onboard as the " free small bag " I haven't ever payed so the bag squashes in under the seat unless you have been allocated the aisle seat which is a smaller space, if you have payed for your bag that should be okay as it will go in the overhead storage.

    Sleeping in Madrid Airport?

    I "tried" to sleep in Madrid airport it wasn't very successful, nobody said anything or told me to move so it's okay to lie on the floor wherever is suitable but McDonald's was open, I'm not sure if it was open all night, I stayed chatting to people until after 2 in the morning, it made for a...

    metro from Porto Airport

    Hi, you can take the metro a few streets from outside the airport to Póvoa de Varzim and then it's about a 20 km walk to Esposende but I'm sure you can take a bus to further yourself up the coast, enjoy, it's beautiful!!

    Bilbao to st jean

    Hi Lisa, I caught the bus from Bilbao to Pamplona and then another bus to St Jean pied de port, that was in 2018, bus timetables shouldn't have changed much since then surely. Have a great time!

    You can prebook a ticket on the Alsa bus website or just get a ticket in the machine at the bus station which is very close to San Mames football stadium, home to Atlétic Bilbao

    Getting to the Camino (Sahagun) from Dublin

    Yes, you can fly to Santander and either bus or train to Palencia then train it to Sahagún, i did that in 2019 but took the Alsa bus to Palencia, it also lets you see more of the countryside, if you have the time of course, good luck 🍀

    Bilbao to Roncesvalles

    Hi @amyqwerty, if you scroll down to similar threads Valery asked that same question, you might find some advice there. I caught the bus from Bilbao to Pamplona and then to St Jean Pied de Port, not sure if there's a bus to Roncesvalles. Have a great time on your camino!!
