  • Alicante Airport Spain Costa blanca be careful and allow yourself plenty of time to get to the airport unlike myself ! Remember there is another passport check before you board the flight, the gate C33 wasnt far away but there was a long wait until the boarding gate opened which was right next to the second passport check. Check out Alicante beach and where to get the bus here • Video

      It was no Brexit back then. Those queues are because Uk is third country ..Nothing happens with Germans,french, Eu passports , they go straight inside the gate.

      @@joaquincastello6174 Brexit was a huge mistake and even the Brexiteers are realizing that now. It will also be reversed in time. Already, loads of rule changes happening to try and get back some of the rights UK citizens had while the UK was in the EU. Spain and other countries actually want to try to make it easier for Brits as well because they make a lot of money from Brits. It makes no sense to make it hard for Brits to come to Spain or to live in Spain.

    Just flew in from Alicante to Dublin yesterday. No queues for security just a queue to board the plane. I sat down and waited till the queue was almost gone and then boarded the plane. Nice and easy 🙂

    Why do you have to have another security check if you’ve already been through security once, I don’t understand it

    • @garymackenzie7794
      @garymackenzie7794 2 ปีที่แล้ว +4

      The first security check is the same as before, to check your bags for liquids etc. The second check near the gate is a police customs check because the UK is no longer part of the EU, they now check/stamp your passport before you leave. It's the same when going anywhere else outside the EU like Australia, the US or Asia

    I flew from Malaga the other day. The queue to get your passport stamped before making it to the gate was horrendous. I wouldn’t call it a security check..the guys were talking to each in the booth and never looked at any passenger who’s passport they stamped. It just another piece of protocol imposed because of brexit to obvs check you out of the country. God help us in peak season..

    Terrible experience at Alicante. Be careful if buying items at Duty Free. The Spanish gatekeepers will insist you can only board the Ryanair flights with one piece of hand luggage and make it clear you have to either get everything into your hand luggage or leave behind. My tip if buying anything in duty free, wear cargo pants with large thigh pockets in case you can’t get everything into your case. Packing bottles etc into your cargo pockets gets round the one bag scam as there, currently, is no limit on what you can put on your person.

    We got the Beniconnect bus to Alicante airport from Benidorm a few weeks back. Found their timings were a bit too tight for my liking. Duty free was so slow we had to put our purchases back, or risk missing the flight. Had there been bigger queues we'd definitely have struggled to catch our flight.
