That's what's making it feel complicated! Not really firmed up yet Probably walking from St Jean from last week in May and meeting my husband at SdC (who'll have the car) Think home may be by ferry from Bilbao. If I fly from Stansted or Gatwick it's a pain to get there from up here. The train would be my preference but eats into timeHi Cate
All depends what your plans are.
Buen Camino!
hi cate.tryed more than one route in the past for biaritz for me midlands birmingham bus from manchester centre to airport then biaritz then bus or train from boyonne to sjpp
Depending on the time factor it might be worth checking the ferry out as a foot passenger, either Portsmouth-Bilbao or Plymouth to either Bilbao or Santander. Then adding yourself in to your husband's return trip with the car. You would need to discuss the options with Brittany Ferries, either direct or via a travel agent. They are good with answering e-mail questions, then calling to make 'unusual' bookings. We did this in 2009 and it worked well.ooh interesting - might look at that Thanks

hurray! Thank you!! - might still get train or ferry but good to have this toohello cate a,
welcome to the forum.
easyjet has just announced their summer flight schedule for 2014 up to september 2014.
low and high prices from manchester to bilbao range from £21.99 to £42.99.
most of the prices are from £23.99 to £34.99 with the exception of this october which is £39.99 and next july which is £42.99.
hope this helps.
buen camino.
Yes. They're one of the biggest UK low cost airlines, but also fly between non-UK cities in Europe. Their UK bases are Luton (near London), and Liverpool amongst others. These airports only really handle European flights, so if travelling from further afield you'd probably have to transfer between airports to connect onto an Easyjet flight. Like Ryanair book early for the best fares. Beware of extra charges for luggage etc, and flights very early in the morning that will require you to stay in a hotel the night before. If the timings and prices work they're fine.Does anyone have any first hand experience regarding EasyJet? Their prices are incredibly cheap in comparison to most of the big airlines?
