Prepare your Valencia journey brief
- Arrival: If your flight uses Valencia Airport (VLC) or Castellón-Costa Azahar Airport (CDT), give the airport on your ticket, flight number and arrival date. Add the full Valencia hotel or venue address; these airport references do not establish a road route or a collection point.
- Check the complete route between stops: The geographic references put Castellón de la Plana (about 64 km) and Benidorm (about 106 km) from Valencia in a straight line. Use those destination guides to collect the actual entrances and required arrival times. Road distance, access and any non-road connection need checking against the complete itinerary, rather than these map measurements.
- Group and return: Include passengers, luggage and mobility needs. Put any return date, pickup time and departure flight or train in the message field.
Match the Valencia arrival to the final neighbourhood
Valencia Airport has Metrovalencia lines 3 and 5, with the airport station on the ground floor of the regional flights terminal. Aena identifies line 3 with the city centre, university and northern metropolitan area, and line 5 with the centre and port direction. A metro journey may therefore suit one part of an itinerary while leaving an onward walk or connection.
For a private group airport transfer, give the hotel or venue address and entrance, not only “Valencia centre”. If your group is boarding a ship, add the operator’s actual passenger terminal instructions; a port-area metro connection is not the same as a coach reaching the embarkation point.

Your Valencia transport questions
Can the Valencia airport metro take us directly to our group’s final address?
Lines 3 and 5 connect the airport with parts of the city, but the final address determines the walk or onward connection. Check the venue or ship terminal separately when comparing public transport with a private transfer.
What is the distance between VLC and Valencia?
The airport and destination map references are approximately 9 km apart in a straight line. A road journey can differ substantially. Provide the actual address in Valencia; the map distance is not a promise of transfer time or fare.
Where will our group meet the vehicle at VLC?
The meeting arrangement for Valencia Airport (VLC) must be confirmed with the booking. Do not assume a coach can collect at any terminal door. Give the flight and terminal details, and keep the lead passenger contact available for the agreed collection instructions.
Can we continue from Valencia to Castellón de la Plana?
Include the next stop in Castellón de la Plana and its address in the initial brief. State whether it is a short visit, an overnight stay or the final destination; those are different vehicle and driver requirements.
How do the Castellón de la Plana and Benidorm stops compare from Valencia?
From the Valencia geographic reference, Castellón de la Plana is approximately 63.5 km away in a straight line and Benidorm is 106.2 km away. A further destination reference is Alicante, approximately 125.8 km from Valencia. The more distant stop needs to be treated as a separate stage of the itinerary, including any connections or overnight plans. These are map measurements, not driving distances; a feasible route and vehicle allocation must be assessed in the quotation.
