Travel details for OurFlat @ Casares del Sol!
Here's some details about how to get to OurFlat. There are two main airports worth considering: Malaga and Gibraltar. Here's some information we hope you will find useful when planning your trip to us.
Malaga Airport
Flights
Flying into Malagar gives you a huge range of flights to choose from. The average drive time from Malagar airport to our flat is an hour. You can’t do it any faster (legally). We don’t recommend attempting the 40 minute drive time often quoted on other web sites associated with flats at Casares del Sol! We aim to provide you with information that we personally know to be true.
Flights from from the UK to Malaga take between 2 hours 30 minutes and 3 hours depending on starting airport. Obviously weather and delays can have an impact!
This site has lots of information about Malaga airport. This page is a very good overview of flights to Malaga.
We recommend trying thomsonfly.com. They fly from many airports including Luton.
Car hire
A good overview can be found here. This site mainly promotes cartrawler.

Almost certainly you will have to process your order in the car pickup hall with many of these choices. This can mean long waits in a queue especially when arriving late at night. The most competitive companies are the most popular!
If you prefer a quicker pickup(we do!!) then try one of these firms. If you have a late arrival – we STRONGLY recommend using these firms. It can save you an hour at busy times!
We have used these firms either at Malaga or Gibraltar
