We, a couple hope to be landing in Alicante late afternoon on 4th. Oct. and would appreciate a lift to Mojacar as contributing passengers.  We may even be three in all. Kindly help if you can. We are free of  Corona.

you would be better off booking the shuttle bus as can't see anyone wanting to pick up 3 strangers coming from the UK who may or may not be covid free, who can say so, and it is frowned on to take payment for a ride as that's taking the taxi drivers money away from them they don't like that !

Thanks but we are not from the UK but elsewhere, where our country is not so badly affected. However, sharing a ride ist  not illegal nor is asking anyone to pick one up.  Affording a Cab for a 240 km. run is not everyones cup of tea. The shuttle from Turre will have returned before we land. But you are right the risk in getting the big "C" is always there. I wish I were an eskimo living in an igloo in the midst of nowhere, but wait, the polar bears, the fish and the Seals could also be Covid Carriers.  No thank you, we'll stay at home in heaven till mother earth has become a paradise once again but wait, weĺl have to watch out for Adam and Eve, oh yes, and that serpeant  with its forbidden fruill!!! Bye.

You're possibly not helping yourselves with the comment about not being from the UK but "elsewhere" and compounding things with sarcasm. It's a big/huge ask to get a lift under normal circumstances let alone under covid constraints. There are bus companies that work around incoming and outgoing flights, have a look around and see what you can find. Best of luck.

Sorry friend, I really didn't mean to irk nor hurt anyone. Re. my origin I tend to keep low for good reasons. Nothing against England nor the British nor nor shaggy headed Boris. Re. my "cracks" I was just practisinfg my sense of humor on you all.  Hope didn't inadvertently drop any clangours. Thanks though for your advice, it all depends on our landing time. We have yet to make a booking due to the on-going  insecurity of the general Covid situation in Spain. Have a nice day.

You need to be aware that, at the moment, the Province of Murcia only allows a 50% car occupancy ...... so this means only 2 people in a 5 seat car and you would have to drive through Murcia to your destination.

The Guardia in the area are being VERY active and monitoring the situation care fully ....... so, if you are caught with 4 in a car, especially as you are not related, the fines would be high.

I agree with other posters, who say that a bus is the best way.

Good luck.

Thank you. We'll make sure that we are only three in all.
