We have an autumn break from here every year. 1 of the criteria we apply is direct flights from Alicante. We've done via Madrid, & it's just too much extra hassle. Our options are now getting a bit limited.
However, ......... a brainwave!
The year we'll be going from Valencia. Cheapy flights, no problems with parking or overnight accommodation as daughter lives up there. It's opened up a whole new raft of possibilities.
We're now happy bunnies.
