happy holidays!

Maybe the info that I have it's wrong, but the old park will be separated in three parts: 1) long stay parking; 2) for employees 3) 340 public places.
The info also says that rent companies will be in the new park. Anyway, the rent company will be more informed.
I regret that info is contradicted.
Sorry again

Travelled through the new terminal on wed with easyjet.it all works very well, although their is a ditinct lack of seating at some of the gates.the car hire works very well.a lot more choice of eating,i,m not sure of the policy on gate allocation .saw two planes at airbridges but two on remote stands although there where free airbridges. Hundred percent better than before.

Sed the new terminal last weekend,arrived from madrid dep gatwick. All worked very well,a long walk from the domestic gates though.not a lot of seating at the departure gates either.the car hire is better than before,all the ques. On one side now..not sure how they assign gates thoigh watched two easyjet go to remote stands while the gatwick flight had airbridge.some confusion upon boarding as there is an unmanned passport desk before the boarding gate,this caused some confusion when they called the flight and asked for sb passengers.all in all thoigh its much better

09-Abril-2011
El servicio, que será directo sin parada intermedia, se prestará los 365 días del año, de lunes a domingo, con 12 viajes de ida y 12 de vuelta.
El alcalde de Torrevieja, Pedro Hernández Mateo, anunció en la mañana de ayer la apertura de plicas, ya realizada, por parte de la Dirección General de Transportes y Logística de la Generalitat Valenciana, para la nueva concesión administrativa del transporte directo entre el Aeropuerto de El Altet y Torrevieja, por la CV-905.
En breves fechas, probablemente este mismo mes de abril 2011, pueda comenzar a funcionar este nuevo servicio de transporte público directo de viajeros por carretera entre Torrevieja y el aeropuerto de El Altet.
El servicio de transporte de viajeros entre Torrevieja y el Aeropuerto de Alicante no llevará ninguna parada intermedia, constituyéndose en un servicio exprés entre el aeropuerto y la estación de autobuses de Torrevieja.
Se ha seleccionado como itinerario del servicio el interior por la autopista A-7, en detrimento del costero por la N-332, dado los mejores y más favorables tiempos de recorrido que ofrece esta alternativa interior frente a la situación –especialmente en época estival- de retenciones y menor velocidad de la carretera costera N-332.

El recorrido será por la CV-905 (carretera de Crevillent) para unir una ciudad que tiene el 52,7% de su población de origen extranjero con un aeropuerto conectado con docenas de destinos internacionales, especialmente europeos. Precisamente, el 60% de los habitantes extranjeros de Torrevieja son europeos en situación de jubilación que han trasladado su residencia a una zona de clima más calido, pero que no dejan de hacer varios viajes al año a sus países utilizando el avión. Esta carretera se ha escogido en lugar de la nacional 332 sobre todo porque en época estival las retenciones hacen que sea una alternativa más lenta.
Además, y al objeto de garantizar la fiabilidad horaria en cuanto a las horas de salida y llegada del autobús, se ha determinado que no habrá paradas intermedias, de modo que será un servicio "expres" que partirá de la estación de autobuses de Torrevieja.

From the pics it looks as if Ryanair aren't using the air-bridges
How long before they add a €2 surcharge to pax flying to/from ALC in order to pay or an air-bridge?

Ryanair didn't add €2 surcharge to fly to/from ALC. This was due to policy cancellations in all Europe.
