Key information about your journey: Alicante Airport (ALC) to Alicante City Transfers.

The journey between Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández Airport and the heart of the city is short but essential for starting your trip well. Thanks to our optimised logistics, you will enjoy a smooth transfer along the A-7 motorway or the N-332 national road, the main arteries that connect the airport and the urban centre.

Distance and estimated travel time

The distance between Alicante Airport (ALC) and the centre of Alicante is approximately 11 to 12 kilometres. In normal traffic conditions, the estimated travel time in a private vehicle is only 15 to 20 minutes. This time may vary slightly depending on the exact location of your accommodation (such as the Puerto area, Barrio de Santa Cruz or Playa del Postiguet) and the traffic at peak times, but it will always be the fastest option compared to the 30-50 minutes that the Line C6 bus can take.
