Return to Biarritz from Estella

[ethellame]

Any advice on how we can return to Biarritz airport from Estella on 2 November? We are a very excited family of newbie camino pilgrims. Thanks for all the advice on this forum. It's been so helpful for our planning.

Conda travels via San Sebastien Airport. Edsa and Conda have links on the Pamplona Bus station website.
