A friend has her luggage transferred from SJPP to Roncesvalke but there was no room anywhere tonite so she is in Espinal at RP Haizea and needs to send her luggage to Los Arcos before it’s sent back to SJPP
Please let me know
 
The one from Galicia (the round) and the one from Castilla & Leon. Individually numbered and made by the same people that make the ones you see on your walk.
She could take a cab back to Roncesvalles and get her bag? That makes the most sense to me.

edit: I have met other pilgrims who had to retrieve a bag via taxi because it didn't arrive as expected. Not common, but it happens
 
3rd Edition. More content, training & pack guides avoid common mistakes, bed bugs etc

I’m assuming your friend is cycling the Camino in which case they can either cycle or taxi to Roncesvalles to retrieve their luggage. I’ll also assume there’s nothing in their package that is required on a day to day basis or they’d need it now not in Los Arcos? If that assumption is correct they would do better to send their package to Santiago rather than play shuttlecock, and collect it on arrival.
Otherwise they need to note that you should never forward luggage to a destination at which you do not have a reservation.

Thanks all. She is going back in the morning to get it. Appreciate your input!

We are currently using Caminofacil and getting excellent bag transfers. You can arrange it all on line!
