    Advice on starting in Roncesvalles

    Probably best to take the train to SJPDP. From there you can take one bus per day to Roncesvalles - run by ALSA and leaves at 13:45. Or you can book a ride with Express Bourricot. https://www.alsa.com/en/web/bus/home https://www.expressbourricot.com/passengers-transport/

    How to get to SJPP from Biarritz?

    Bus from the airport to Bayonne station. 1.20 euro - pay the driver. Then SNCF train to SJPDP - tickets from vending machines in the station.

    How to pay for bus within Santiago?

    I saw a Facebook post recently from someone who had run out of cash about 3 days walk from the nearest ATM on the Via de la Plata. So used to card payments that they just didn't think to keep a reserve of cash on hand. Worth remembering that there are still places in rural Spain which do not...

    How to pay for bus within Santiago?

    Not sure about cards but there is a flat fare of €1. I just handed over a coin the last time I took a bus to the airport.

    Santiago to Bilbao

    Vueling and Iberia do direct flights from Santiago to Bilbao. Probably the fastest option. ALSA run direct buses which will be slower but might be cheaper - that depends on the date and time.

    Pamplona to St Jean Pied de Port

    They offer a service to Pamplona so it seems reasonable that they would go the other direction too.

    The main Pamplona bus station: Calle Yanguas y Miranda

    Bus from 'where' in A Coruna to A Coruna airport ?

    If you look on Google Maps there is a Repsol gasolinera on a major road between the railway station and the bus station. There is a bus stop beside the gasolinera. The road itself is quite low down compared to the railway station. and accessed by a pedestrian walkway. Buses for the airport leave...

    Transport along the Camino St James Route

    No - many of the smaller villages have little or no bus service. Bus services along the Camino Frances are very patchy.

    Left luggage service at all Correos offices

    Correos don't seem to be publishing the detailed prices online. The web page about the service simply says that there are two different price ranges according to weight...

    Left luggage service at all Correos offices

    Just saw a press release from Correos announcing that they will be offering a left luggage service at all of their 2,000+ offices throughout Spain. For up to 15 days at a time. https://www.correos.com/sala-prensa/correos-ofrece-un-nuevo-servicio-de-consigna-en-todas-sus-oficinas-de-espana/

    Suggestions on getting from Madrid airport to Leon?

    Cheapest and simplest is an ALSA bus direct from the airport to Leon. Book in advance on the ALSA website. https://www.alsa.com/en/web/bus/home

    Oviedo to Astorga & Ponferrada to Oviedo

    Looks like it would be possible to go from Asturias airport to Astorga by ALSA bus - provided your arrival at the airport is not too delayed. And there are a couple of options back from Ponferrada to the airport on Sunday but not very early.

    Santiago de Compostela Airport to O Cebreiro

    There is one daily bus from the airport to Pedrafita (and also O Cebreiro). It is run by Monbus. https://www.monbus.es/en#seleccion The ALSA buses to Pedrafita do not run from the airport. You would need to travel to the Intermodal station in Santiago itself to find those...

    Group Travel Bus to Sarria from SdC

    It takes considerably longer by train than bus - you have to change trains in Ourense.

    Start places with train stations?

    Frequently moist like most of Galicia but well worth visiting all the same! :cool:

    Start places with train stations?

    If you do not want to fly to Santiago then perhaps A Coruña instead and train or bus from there to your starting point. Try a decent flight search engine like Kayak. It would be bizarre to fly to Barcelona just to travel all the way across Spain on ground transport.

    ALSA run buses roughly once an hour from Asturias airport to Gijon. You can check times and book on their website. https://www.alsa.com/en/
