Oct 25th 2024
I have tried three companies now online, October 25th to October 31st are my travel dates between sarria and santiago de compostela - noone of the companies are offering luggage transfer on my dates. Am I doing something wrong?? I have tried caminofacil, paq mochila (correos), pilbeo..

Anyone able to help or anyone having the same problem??

Hi Trecile,
I have tried to book with correos on their website and it is saying my date (Oct 25th) is invalid.. I must choose a a date from Nov 1st only. When I fill in sarria details and end destination, October calendar does not appear. Only November. On their website it says paq mochila will only be available from November 1st..

You selected the "temporada de invierno" option, which means winter season.

Select the option that only says "C. Frances / Sarria"

Edit: just noticed the start date for that one only goes up to Oct 15... So that doesn't work either
 
Thank you for taking the time to help. I tried that (choosing C.Frances / Sarria) and the only October dates available are until October 15th, the other dates are blanked out in October.

Obviously, something is wrong with their site right now.

I just checked Pilbeo and Caminofácil and they both have the same issue.

But I wouldn't worry. You will be able to book luggage transfer day by day once you are there. You don't need to do it ahead.

If you want to book it now send emails to the different companies to let them know the issues you are having.

The calender on the Jacotrans site is working for late October.

Yes, I think I will email them directly. Thanks so much for checking it out also, appreciate it. That's good to know I can book the transfers day to day 🙏

If you are on a path besides CF & transfers stop after 15 Oct you do have the ability to send a bag ahead from post office to post office & pick it up every few days- just can’t get it on a weekend. Not ideal but if you can do without a few items for a few days at a time this may be an option.
