I am schedule to arrive in Biarritz on Sunday lunch time 9 October. I dont see any trains after 2pm (and I won't make 2pm). Any suggestions or possibly someone who wants to share a ride?
 
€2,-/day will present your project to thousands of visitors each day. All interested in the Camino de Santiago.
I arrived at Biarritz airport mid-afternoon. I stayed the night at the hotel opposite the terminal.
In the morning I walked to the train station, got a train to Bayonne, then the connecting train to St Jean. At St Jean I stopped in at the Pilgrim Office, got sorted there, and set off for Roncesvalles. Easily made it in the afternoon (I had made a booking). This was on my first toe-in-the-water Camino experience, 2017.
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.

Thanks! Appreciate your response. In the end I was very fortunate to catch the last train at 14h20 although our flight only landed at 13h35. Friendly staff on the plane (that allowed me to disembark first), a generous fellow passenger that offered to drop me off at the station when there were no taxis outside the airport building, and the beauty of the internet allowing oe to book when the ticket office is closed and only one self help terminal is functional, all played a role. I see is all as provision as an answer to prayer though. 🙂

The Camino provides. Have fun!
