Benidorm - Valencia or Alicante airport?

Morning all,

OH and I and our baby (who will be around 5 months old!) have been invited to a wedding of OH's friend. He lives about 15 mins outside Benidorm soooooo what I am wondering - which would be the best airport to go to?

We'll be flying from either Newcastle or Liverpool to either Valencia or Alicante . Does anyone know roughly the flight times from either airport and then the travelling times to Benidorm?

thanks!
:j:jOur gorgeous baby boy born 2nd May 2011 - 12 days overdue!!:j:j

    google for the airport websites where the airlines will be listed under the destinations listing and then go to the airlines websites for flight availability.

    Go to maps.google.com and put in the address near Benidorm and look at the distances on the map.

    Pick flight times that suit the baby's normal routine, if take off is during the normal sleep time, baby won't like it etc.

    Google is your friend !!!


    Valencia is around 65 miles to Benidorm. Alicante Benidorm 22 miles

    Flight times are available from the airlines that do the routes, just remember to get actual flying time, subtract 1 hour outbound and add one hour inbound due to local time diferences.

    eg Flight times dep UK 12:00 arrive destination Spain 15:00 actual flying time is 3hrs-1 = 2hours

    reverse dep Spain 12:00 arrive UK 13:00 actual flying time 1hr+1 = 2hours.
