I will fly out of the La Coruña airport after my camino. I can not find any option to get there that does not involve going int the center of La coruna and from there out to the airport.
All help appreciated.
I have no personal experience of this but as I remember it is the same company who provide the security staff for both airports so I'd imagine so.Could you give me some information about the A Coruna airport? I am debating flying in and out of there or Santiago for the Camino Ingles. How pilgrim friendly is A Coruna- specifically are they as strict about confiscating trekking poles as is Santiago airport? Thanks.

Julia - for the avoidance of doubt - as you leave Coruña station by the main exit (the station is not large) there is a taxi rank right outside. Turn Right and at the traffic lights cross the road and turn Left. Proceed down this road for a short distance - in front of you there is a walkway over the motorway, however do not go that far because there is a lane to your right past the gas station which leads to the bus stop - which is on the same side as the gas station. The distance from the station to the bus stop is 10 minutes (max) on foot.
Bus stop is just after the roundabout on right hand side. Cross over the main road, turn right at the roundabout and walk up to the terminal. 1km according to Google Maps....... It is then a relatively short walk to Terminal. No footpath but a wide verge. I will post a map link later to show location of stop.
You can get the bus from Santiago to Alvedro and walk from there. It's a bit under a kilometer. The airport is really close but you are the wrong side of the runway as you get off the bus so have to walk in a loop round the end of the airport.
I found this route on rome2rio, and it looks reasonable, but I don't know how pedestrian friendly the road is. You could take a look at Google maps and use Street view.
