Ich war beeindruckt von der modernen und gut organisierten Struktur dieses Ortes. Alles war klar beschriftet und strukturiert, was es einfach machte, sich zurechtzufinden. Das Personal war sehr hilfsbereit und freundlich, und die Sauberkeit im gesamten Bereich war gut.

Ein kleiner negativer Punkt war jedoch, dass man durch den zollfreien Laden geleitet wurde, was etwas umständlich ist. Trotzdem war ich froh, dass der Ort aufgrund seiner Grösse keine langen Wege hatte und leicht zu überblicken war. Insgesamt war es eine angenehme Erfahrung.

1 Stern Abzug, wegen duty free Engpass

Easily one of the most efficient airport I’ve been to far.

10/10 no complaints whatsoever.

1 really liked this airport. Clean, modern and easy to navigate. You can take the airport bus for €3.85 to Alicante centre - it's super easy; the bus is right outside the airport. The buses are clean and comfortable. If you plan to go to the centre then I recommend getting the bus rather than a taxi. We used the bus to and from the airport.

Bus C6 is a 24-hour service that runs between the airport and Alicante city centre.

On arrival, go to the second floor (the departure level) and follow the signs. The bus stop is down on the right when you exit the airport.

The bus is quite frequent, every 20 minutes or so, and every hour later in the evenings.

A single journey costs less than €5. Make sure you have €5 or loose change ready as the bus does not accept card payment and the driver may not have enough change for bigger notes.

Alicante is a small airport. It has all the services of a larger airport.
The Airport is on many levels.

It is no different to any other airport.
People to help who speak good English. Information areas.
Passengers support.
Toilets at various areas

On arrival, passport check, Please be aware as there can be long queues for English passport checks,then into baggage reclaim, then out. The airport is on many levels.

The top level is coaches and buses to Alicante and beyond.
Returning ticket , baggage check then to seating areas shops. Information centre ect.
Taxis available, Hire cars. Follow directions on signs.

There is a shuttle bus to Alicante every 20 mins. It is the last bus stop but one on your right. 4 euros passage to Alicante. It does a circular route and returns to the airport.

It stops on the way to the city and central harbour, bus depot and market. Good for accommodation central and on route. Remember to use red stop button to tell the bus driver to stop.

Having travelled through many airports I can happily say that Alicante airport is pretty easy to navigate. Dropping off a rental is ground floor then a short walk to departures on the top floor. Before departures there are plenty of options to eat or drink.
Security takes no more than 20 mins but be prepared as always for longer.
There are lots of options to eat and drink after security and facilities. More than some international airports.
Overall it's not a bad experience

So clean, fresh, easy to follow instructions when you're inside the airport. Great drop off and pick up parking.

gigantic airport equipped with all comforts. many refreshment points, bars, shops and restaurants. in a wide choice of options for shopping and eating. plenty of seats to wait for the flight, various toilet points and even a smoking room which however is reserved exclusively for customers of the Budweiser restaurant, and therefore for a fee. very convenient to reach from the center of Alicante with the convenient C6 bus line, which runs every 20 minutes and takes you to your destination in just a few stops.

Nice, clean, quiet airport rooms, nice shops, good food, BUT very overpriced prices!

Lovely modern airport. Light and airy with big windows looking out to the mountain range behind. Burger King fast food. Clean toilets. -1 star because the free water fountains were all “broken” so had to buy water.

Great airport with many varieties of flights.Additionally,when it is warm outside when you go in it is a lot better with all the huge fans on the ceiling.The check in line had a lot of people but was handled quickly by the staff.This made it my quickest ever check in and security which took just 25-35min (with an infant).The airport has a good variety of food and snacks and drinks ti buy for your flight or while your waiting.The prices are always higher at the airport but they were not that bad here and many information desks that are very helpful.For example,you arent allowed to have a football on the plane unless it is flat but we didnt have anything to unpump it with so they were prepared and did it for us which was great.Overall,no major cons and great 5star airport.

Lovely little Airport. Very busy though so me and the Mrs were both super impressed with the speed and efficiency of the Special Assistance Team. We have two Autistic boys, 9 & 10. They were friendly and professional, and even advised us where the quietest areas were. Very happy, you made our trip home stress free which doesn't happen often for us. They were even calm enough to enjoy a bite to eat too. Thank you so much!

Nice airport. Small but with all kind of stores and places to drink/eat.
Toilets are clean and most of them have a water fountain at the entrance, which is great to refill your bottle or just have a drink.
There's a playground at the B gates section (UK).
Plenty of charging stations.
Staff was friendly and helpful from security check to boarding gate.
Queues move quickly.

Nice airport.

Very quick service post landing. Well organized to not have long ques at arrivals exit.

The departure experience was also smooth, lots of nice restaurants at the airside, simply brilliant…!

Nice and huge multi airline lounge at the airport.
