Transport
Rather than getting into your car and driving into town, it is much
more
environment-friendly to take public transport, specially if you are
over 60 or qualify for a bus pass! It can also be cheaper to take a
taxi or a coach to the airport rather than paying for expensive airport
parking. Coaches and Trains can be booked on-line using the links below.
