Getting to Murcia Airport

Posted on 21 December 2014

Murcia-San Javier Airport is becoming increasingly popular as more and more of the low cost budget airlines are now flying there.

You can now fly in from twelve airports in the UK: , Bristol, Gatwick and Stanstead. Flying time from the UK is around 2 hours 45 minutes.

The airlines which now operate out of Murcia are Easy Jet and Ryanair,  as well as JetAir and Air Nostrum.

44 kms from the city centre, Murcia is a small airport, and unfortunately there are no direct buses or trains so your only options are to take a taxi or hire a car.

Using a taxi can end up being quite costly, up to 65 euros for going to Murcia city.

When taking a taxi please bear in mind that the companies take a maximum of 4 passengers per car, including children, so if your party is larger you should book a transfer in advance.

As a guide, following are the distances of other popular resorts served by this airport: Murcia 44 kms; Alicante 85 kms; Torrevieja 30 kms; Cartagena 30 kms and La Manga Mar Menor 73 kms.
