    Discount train card for pensioners

    It looks like you can purchase a Tarjeta Dorado for one year on-line. It gives you the 1, 2 or 3 year option. Separately, can you use a digital card or do you need a physical card.

    Ryanair and cabin bags?

    I have taken my 38l Osprey Kestrel on 5 flights, 3 with Ryanair with no issues taking it into the cabin. I’ve always prepared to pay for it, as I want it with me, if challenged at the gate.

    Ryanair Baggage Requirements

    I ”risked” it last year. Managed to get my 38l pack onboard twice. If they took it from me at least I would know it’s in the hold.

    Is it fair to assume that the gentler route, via Ibaneta Pass, is sign posted ?

    Thanks. I was looking at Gronze on my iPad and couldn’t see a version in English. I’ll download it to my phone.

    EasyJet cancelled my flight 😞

    I procrastinated greatly on my travel to STJPDP. There appeared to be so many options. Glasgow to Bristol to Biarritz with easyJet was one such option, requiring an over in Bristol. I almost booked it but choose the GLA- Gatwick- Biarritz route, then train to STJPDP. This was the obvious route...

    One way ticket

    That’s a good question raised by the OP. I couldn’t imagine knowing what day I would finish the Camino and whether or not to cont to the coast, so I assumed I would buy a one way ticket only. I didn’t realise this could be an issue. i would fly into France and be out in a few days.
