query re: air travel to the camino frances

[Galen Wilkerson]

Hi,

I have been responding to a lot of things, I must be really full of....
information!  :)

Here's what I would do if I could plan and do it right:

- get a ticket to fly to london on the cheapest flight you can find.
- Buy a ticket from www.ryanair.com or easyjet or something similar and fly
from london to Bilbao or Biarritz.

That is the dirt-cheapest thing I can think of.  London is generally the
cheapest place to fly to in Europe from the US, and ryanair CAN be cheap if
you buy ahead.

The train from the atlantic coast of France near Biarritz to St. Jean Pied
de Port (a starting point on the camino) cost about 11 euros = 13 bucks.

By the way, you can leave things in a box at the welcome office at St.
Jean, and pick them up when you're back.
