Apparently bus service from Pamplona to SJPP will not begin until April. I emailed ALSA about when service would begin and this is their response:
En contestación a su consulta de referencia 32361978, le indicamos que esos servicios empezaran a estar operativos a partir de abril.

For those of you who recently flown into Madrid, how long did it take to go through immigration & customs? I get into Madrid at 10:15 am and would like to make my way to Atocha for a 1:15 train in ample time.
Thanks!
French train help
I've been trying to decide whether to purchase train tickets before we go or just wait until we get to France. I am still pondering what to do but first I want to vent.
The French rail website is a bit confusing for an old geezer like me. When go to the SNCF website to...
VT, I hope so. Only problem is my Spanish is very rusty, so I expect the first couple of weeks to be a bit rough as I remember. Luckily I know how to say vino, cerveza, pan, jamon, huevos, tortilla, cafe corto and my favorite cafe carajillo!! :mrgreen:
Buen Camino, Cullen
Rebekah,
I'll definitely make it a point. I've enjoyed your posts and it would be great to meet.
Ojala tienes mucho vino en tu bodega :wink:
abrazos y buen camino

I'll have to check out the two travel programs at least the French one. Mi español es bueno, así que no tendrá ningún problema ordenar comida o vino, o los cigarros. 8)
I guess I will have no problems on the Camino since I'll be well insulated!! :mrgreen:

Can anyone helpl me with taking the trains to SJPP? The airline I am thinking about booking on gets into Paris at 1330. I have tried to use the links to the French Rail System but I can't seem find the timetables. Is there any trains that leave in the afternoon? I realize I need to get to...
Falcon, Iberia's prices look good except we'll be staying in Europe till the middle of June and Iberia's rate are a bit high by then. I am getting the feeling that going to SJPP from Madrid is a bit of a hassle. The suggestion Jeff offers to go to Biarritz intrigues me. Right now I can find a...
I am looking for advice from folks that have flown from North America. I am planning to do my Camino this March, Originally I was planning to fly from NYC to Paris and take the train to Bayonne and then onto SJPP. However with the suspended service b/w Bayonne and SJPP, would it be better to...
When I do my Camino I thinking about flying Aer Lingus to London, then catching Ryanair to Biarritz then go by train to SJPP. The air fare is very reasonable even on a one way. Comments?
