The direct train link to Alicante has been talked about for almost 20 years, but could become a reality before too long

This is when you will finally be able to get a train direct to Alicante airport

A train that stops at the Alicante-Elche Miguel Hernández airport has been in the works for years now without ever materialising, but now this useful service for air passengers flying in and out of the Costa Blanca has just taken one step closer to becoming a reality.

The state-owned railway infrastructure administrator, Adif, and the airports management company, Aena, have just agreed on several important specifications for the arrival of the train line at Alicante airport.

It was back in 2005 when a site was set aside for the planned train station, a location that was earmarked even through the expansion and renovation work that took place in 2011. Specifically, the train station will be underground, just to the east of the vehicle parking building.

Recent technical coordination has been carried out to further the project as part of the railway branch from the current Cercanías C-1 line between Alicante city and Elche and which stretches all the way down to Murcia city, a project that is expected to begin in 2026 and end in 2030.

Speaking at the recent inauguration ceremony of the new easyJet airline base at Alicante airport, Government delegate in the Valencian Community, Pilar Bernabé, assured that the train link has been included in the trans-European transport network by the European Union, which would guarantee that it can be paid for by Next Generation funds.
