Alicante Airport

Queues to check in were quite long and slow and the queues through the detectors into departure lounge were long though they only had half of the desks open so that was the likely reason! Once through though the departure lounge is lovely. Clean ammenities and plenty of food and drink. Very comfy indeed!

Access to Alicante airport is good with easy parking. The check in hall is bright and spacious and there is a good range of shops. There is a fair range of eating establishments serving good quality food. Toilets are clean and plentiful. There is adequate seating in the departure lounge and gates are close and served by air bridges. This was in February so I imagine it could get a little crowded during the summer months. A good airport nevertheless.

If you are taking a late evening flight from Alicante please bring some food! Most if not all of the shops and food halls close. The duty free store (the smallest) does however remain open so you could survive on chocolate and turron! Airport is easy to navigate car rental booths can get very very busy in the summer 1hr+ queues.

Terminal is quite roomy with decent shopping and eating facilities. Plenty of places to sit although more and more charter flights coming so I don't know for how long.
