Oh no, what a dreadful start to your holiday. 😣 Everyone in Terreros is so helpful, I'm sure someone will come to your rescue...It is so inconvenient with no transport links to the village though but I agree hire cars are extortionate this year. May I ask how you travelled to SJLT from the air...

Yes of course. We booked a coach transfer with www.exclusiveairportshuttles.co.uk

This takes you as far as Consum supermarket at Vera Playa, then a pre-booked taxi into SJDLT. That’s if you’re coming from Almeria. But a similar system for the other two airports.

It was an excellent service and one we’d use again. They held the coach back until we (and another coup...

They also arrange the taxi transfer. You complete the form online to book which is already populated with the flights into Almeria, Murcia and Alicante.

Hello

Our luggage wasn't sent on the flight from Manchester yesterday. We have to return to Almeria Airport to collect it in person, so we need to hire a car either pick up today 3rd August, or in the morning of 4th August.

Struggling to find a car hire place where we can pick up the car near to SJDLT and return to same, possibly keeping the car for 3 days or maybe one week if that works out a better deal. Would appreciate any advice. 

Thank you.

I know at the moment car hire is virtually impossible from Vera, Mojacar etc. Just a thought if you are stuck can you get the exclusive shuttle bus back from Consum like you did coming? I know they meet all the flights from Almeria airport so you maybe able to get one at a time that suits.

Good luck and hope you get it soon....

You may have already sorted this out, but I have had the same experience twice  in the last two weeks flying to and from Helsinki to Manchester, each time with a different airline.  My experience is that if you push the airline, they are under an obligation to bring the case to you. &nb...
