Flybus (Almería) - anybody used the service?

Details
John Woodhead
27 July 2021

A reader got in touch last night about a service called Flybus.

Looking at their website they specialise in transport to and from a number of Spanish airports including Almería.

The reader, Craig, asked whether I had heard of the service. He also asked could I provide some feedback about it.

I did not know it existed. So I said I would ask anyone who reads this site whether they have used the service here or at any other Spanish airport.

Here is a link to their page with information about Almería airport transfers.

If you have any feedback about Flybus you can comment on this story on the Facebook page associated with the site. Alternatively, if you do not use Facebook, please provide your feedback using the contact form on the site. I will then post your feedback on here.

Thanks.
