Malaga to Bournemouth flights

Malaga to Bournemouth flights take you to Bournemouth Airport (BOH). The route connects the Costa del Sol to the south coast of England in about three hours, arriving on the edge of Hurn, just north of the seaside resort.

The cheapest tickets start from £12.

When departing on this route, you will use Malaga Airport, which has three connected terminals. Most international flights pass through Terminal 3, where you can find the departures area for flights to Bournemouth. You can easily walk between the terminals as they are linked within a single complex. Ryanair operates from this main terminal building, which also offers various passenger services.

If you are travelling from the city centre, the Line A Express bus provides a direct link to the terminal, while the Renfe C1 suburban train connects the airport with Malaga and other coastal towns. Drivers can use the MA-21 motorway to reach the dedicated parking and drop-off zones close to the main terminal.

Bournemouth Airport handles arrivals from Malaga and sits a short distance north of the coast.

If you travel by car via the A338 road, the drive takes around 15 minutes. Taxis can be booked at the desks inside the arrivals building, and private hire vehicles use designated pick-up points near the terminal.
