Thanks..............................any suggestions for flight transfers?????????????????

If there are three people then I think the easiest transfer (apart from hiring a car) is to get a taxi. There are usually several outside the Arrivals hall. You might save a bit by booking a transfer in the UK but not much.

Shuttle transfer approx £11pp booked through Travelrepublic.

To keep this on topic, please post any questions regarding transfers in the dedicated topic HERE

Thanks for the replies.

Does anyone know if the boat trips still run over the christmas period?

I know aqualandia closes, but i assume the nature parks still open, and i assume the same regarding Benidorm palace?

i know its a lot of questions, just want to rest my mind that it will be a packed out week, as havent booked the best in ways of accomodation, so dont wana endup in the room for days!!!!!!

Thanks Again..................

Regarding the weather, last Christmas Day it was sunny and 18C in Alicante and the same on Boxing Day and that in the middle of a long and cold winter on the Costa Blanca.

Hi we have stayed in Benidorm 4 times now at Christmas, twice it has been 20-24 durring the day and the other times it was around 16-18 so still nice for the time of year and a lot hotter than the uk.

Mundamar stays open but Terra Natura and Terra Mittica can vary, some years they have only opened at the weekend and some years they have closed best check thier websites.

Christmas dinners are served in lots of the British bars but they advise you to book in advance, so you could call into one of them when you first get there. We have never bothered before as we didn`t think our son would be happy sat in one place for too long (he was only young and very active). We tended to go for a Chinese instead and we never booked, not traditional I know but we had a Christmas dinner back in the uk.

Where are you staying and when do you go ?

Thanksfor the info. We fly out on the 21st December until the 28th. Never been away at christmas before and really looking forward to it. Sounds likeeverything is open and plenty to do?

We also are going for Christmas, we are there from 19-26 Dec and are staying at the Princes Park Hotel we will have Christmas dinner in the hotel this year.

If I remember Shelias in the old town was rated before for a Christmas dinner and the Queens, not sure of any where else but lots do bookings. If you haven`t anywhere sorted before I go, I will have a look and post on here any places that have tables left if you like. You may find that some members might be going out just before Chrismas and they might be able to help.

It`s fantastic at Christmas, the lights are lovely along the streets. A lot of the hotels trim up and a lot of the shops trim up too. Practicaly every where is open. But the best bit is sitting in the sun and knowing how cold it is in the uk and not having to queue for christmas shopping in the supermarket.
