    What alternatives to Correos for baggage transfer on the Inglés?

    Camino Facil: https://caminofacil.net/en/ I used them when I walked the Ingles. I had an overnight in Pontedeume that they did not have on their list and they added it for me no problem.

    Lengthen Camino Ingles?

    Neda is good stop over to get you in the swing of the Camino. I used Camino Facil for luggage transfer and they were great. I had a couple of accommodations that were not on their web forms and I contacted them and they added my accommodations.
