Heads Up
On Thursday I bought 2 tickets from Burgos to Madrid Airport for June 5. I couldn’t do this until this week as the timetable wasn’t showing. Anyway €9.70 for a one way journey which I think is the cheapest bus ticket I have got and maybe it’s because I am early booking . Maybe other routes also have good early deals also.

All my experiences travelling with Alsa have been positive. Reliable (such a relief to see the bus turn up in an empty bus station in the middle of the night). And drivers always patient with pilgrims and cyclists loading/removing kit. At those prices it's astounding value for money

Thanks for the heads up. They have a promotional fare of only €12, which is also changeable for Santiago to Porto when I will be there in June.

I paid €40 for the same route in 2019.

Big fan of ALSA buses here! ... I've also just noticed that MONBUS. in Galicia, appears to be selling marked down tickets.

Thanks for this info A Kerryman. Does anyone know if you have to book bus ahead or can walk up and buy a ticket? Will take the bus from Pamplona to SJPP.

No, they have their own program.
But I saved a lot more than 25% by buying my ticket during this sale.
