I was hoping to visit Valencia next March. However I see that the Ryanair flight arrives in Valencia at 11.30 p.m. This is very late and no use to me.
I have also been looking at flying to Madrid and getting a train from Atocha train station to Valencia at a cost of about €30 for the journey, time on train about an hour and a half.
Does anyone know of any othet airline that flies direct from Dublin to Valencia or any other method of doing this trip. Thanks
 
You can use the ITA page to search a lot options between two airports. Doesn't cover the likes of Ryanair who don't share their schedules though.
 
You probably won't do better than Ryanair on price, but one alternative option is Easyjet from Gatwick Airport London. They fly 2 or 3 times daily
direct to Valencia. Maybe Easyjet just for the outbound flight and then Ryanair for the return leg.


The Madrid option is a good idea.
 
1. Dublin - Alicante (then for Valencia, Bus timetable in English www.alsa.es or train www.renfe.com) - within 2 hours. [from memory, I think you can book the alsa bus service originating at Alicante Airport].

2. Dublin - Barcelona (more train services, but much longer journey, 3.5 hours I think).

If you are booking online for bus or train you will need to supply passport details. The good news:- bus from Alicante will cost less than €20.[Return:- Íde y vuelta Single:- Íde].

Thanks everyone. snowyb, I will look at the Easyjet route but I think I would prefer the Madrid/train option. I know my way around Madrid and Atocha train station.
Leper. I was in Alicante airport 10 days ago and I have also looked at this. I got the Alsa bus to Benidorm bus station and then on to Altea. It worked very well. I noticed various Alsa buses from level two to various destination but didn't notice one to Valencia. However I think you are correct about this.
Leo. Thanks for the link. I have checked and found that some routes involve up to 3 airport stops and pricey.
GordonGekko. Arriving after 12 p.m. at a hotel just doesn't appeal to me.
