Best way to get from Santiago Airport to Sarria

[xmogulhopr]

Hello All,
Looking for advise on getting from the Santiago Airport to Sarria by bus or by reasonably priced taxi. I arrive on Oct. 23 at 8:40 am and would like to get to Sarria in time to be able to see some of the city as I will begin hiking the following day. Thanks for any advise!

Take the bus from the airport to Lugo, and transfer to the bus to Sarria.

Is there a bus terminal at the Santiago airport? Is there a site that I can view the bus schedules?

Not a bus terminal, just a stop. This is a provincial airport, everything is quite evident. See here For schedules, see Empresa Freire
I suggest you use the "search" option in this forum (above, right). The "Santiago airport to Sarria" threads has lots of posts.
Buen camino!

No , you walk out the airport and there are several busstops.
Wish you well and a Buen Camino,Peter.

Here is Santiago Labacolla Airport website. See the map to find the bus stop. http://www.aena.es/en/santiago-airport/index.html

When I was going on my first Camino, in 2015, I arrived in Madrid and sat around for some time before hopping a flight to Pamplona, then took a taxi to the bus shelter, where I then was picked up by a guesthouse owner....It felt like a lot of transfers, and it was.

Getting off a plane and finding a bus--right there!--is going to be easy! Don't over-think it. You can do it!

Everybody is.

The Lavacolla airport has recently been renamed "Rosalía de Castro". It honors a very fine Galega poet.
Would not be nice to call the airport this way in the forum?

Only if it adds to needed information. For instance, the Empresa Freire website refers to the airport as Labacolla airport ... and is a potential source of confusion if you don't know this is Santiago Airport. I'm not sure why Empresa Freire doesn't spell it 'Lavacolla' either.

I agree...that poetry is not a practical thing.
Airports receive usually the name of politicians from the recent present or the historical past. Not that I am against it, but I found remarkable the Galego initiative .
I will personally stand for Lavacolla/Rosalía de Castro airport.
