Alicante Charters

Alicante Charters
are organized by the big tour operators in the countries interested in Alicante as a dream destination. And these are not few!
Like any other booming travel spot, Alicante became the host of many charter flights coming from all over Europe.

Alicante charter flights land in peak season on El Altet (Alicante International Airport) from London, Rome, Paris and Hamburg, bringing thousands of visitors longing for sunny days on the beach and explosive nightlife.

They are normally operated on specific days of the week, but are of a fixed duration. Fares are cheaper than the major low cost or scheduled airline, but they are also offering more restricted services than these companies.

Pay attention when you book your Alicante charter flight, because the tour operators do not usually include the tax and fuel surcharges in displayed fares. Anyway, good news, because from mid 2008, the non-optional extras must be incorporated into the displayed fares, according to the new legislation.

The biggest number of Alicante charters takes off from the UK, and mainly by Thomson, the number one Briton tour operator. Thomson Fly have the best UK connections to Alicante, as they fly from most UK airports, including Cardiff, Glasgow, Edinburgh and Belfast.

Almost all the important low-cost players on the market organize flights from the UK: Easy Jet flies to Alicante from London Luton, Stansted, Gatwick, Newcastle, Bristol, Liverpool, East Midlands, Belfast, Edinburgh and Glasgow.

Fly Monarch offers direct connections from Gatwick, Luton and Manchester, Aer Lingus operates from Dublin and Cork, Air Berlin connects UK to Alicante from Stanstead , while Ryanair operates from from Stantead, Bournemouth, Manchester, Doncaster, Durham, East Midlands, Liverpool,  Newquay and Edinburgh.

From Denmark or Sweden, the company operating all year round is Spanair (possible changes in Madrid or Barcelona might occur during the low season).

Alicante charters land on Alicante's International El Altet airport (IATA: ALC, ICAO: LEAL), 10km southwest the city of Alicante, representing a real gateway to the Costa Blanca. El Altet is the sixth busiest airport in Spain.
