Notes from a traveller Aug 2006: |
I had enormous trouble getting to
Murcia airport last week. The first bus from Murcia city to the airport
is at 1300 and takes 45 mins (not great if your flight leaves at
1400), and there are only 3 per day. Taxi cost me €50 and took about 30
mins. Also, there
are only 3 buses per day from the airport to Murcia town. Basically
you either have to hire a car or get a taxi to and from this one. |
|
Notes from a
traveller
Oct 2009: |
The airport bus no
longer runs. You need to get a taxi to San Javier town and then take a bus from
there. |
