Flights Eindhoven to Valencia with Ryanair 2026

Flight details Eindhoven - Valencia 2026

Which airlines fly from Eindhoven to Valencia?

Ryanair is the only airline with a direct connection from Eindhoven Airport (EIN) to Valencia Airport (VLC). In the 2026 summer season (from approximately late March to late October), Ryanair flies almost daily: typically Monday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday.

In the winter season the frequency is considerably lower. Departure times vary by day from early morning (around 09:20) to evening (around 21:10). The return flight FR1717 departs many days around 15:00 from Valencia and arrives at around 17:30 in Eindhoven.

When are the cheapest flights Eindhoven - Valencia?

Ryanair tickets are cheapest when you book early out of season. The cheapest periods are January and February, and early-booked June flights: return sometimes from €60 to €80 per person. The most expensive periods are the week around Las Fallas (15 to 19 March), the summer holidays (mid-July to end August) and Christmas holidays: return can then rise to €150 to €250.

Best value-for-money months: May (20 to 25 degrees, lower prices than summer), September (still 25 to 29 degrees, quiet after peak season) and October (autumn sunshine, lowest crowds, lowest prices). Book preferably 6 to 10 weeks in advance for the lowest fares; last-minute Ryanair tickets are rarely cheap.

From Valencia Airport to the city centre

Valencia Airport (VLC) is approximately 8 km west of the city centre. You have three good options:

• Metro (recommended, line 3 or 5) In approximately 25 minutes to the city centre (station Xativa or Colon). Cost: approximately €3.90 (zone AB, including airport surcharge). With a SUMA 10 autod (€5.40 for 10 journeys) it is cheaper per trip. Train frequency: every 15 to 20 minutes.
• Bus EMT line 150 Cheapest option: approximately €1.50, but journey time is 30 to 40 minutes with stops. Ideal if you are not in a hurry.
• Taxi Approximately €20 to €25 for up to 4 people; journey time approximately 20 minutes outside rush hour. Surcharges apply for night and weekend journeys and luggage. Official taxi rank directly in front of the arrivals hall.

Alternatives to Eindhoven Airport

If Eindhoven has no suitable option on your travel date, these are the best alternatives:

• Weeze Airport (NRN) Approximately 40 km from Eindhoven; Ryanair flies seasonally to Valencia. Sometimes cheaper than Eindhoven, but always check the current timetable on ryanair.com.
• Brussels-Charleroi (CRL) Approximately 130 km; Ryanair flies about 10 times a week to Valencia. One-way sometimes from approximately €33. More travel effort, but a wider choice of times.
• Amsterdam Schiphol (AMS) Transavia, KLM and easyJet offer about 16 flights per week to Valencia. Return sometimes from €74. Broader choice of times and airlines, but generally more expensive for travellers from the Eindhoven region.

When is the best time to visit Valencia?

Valencia enjoys good weather almost all year round. Las Fallas (15 to 19 March) is one of Spain's most spectacular festivals: enormous papier-mache figures are burned. Book 6 to 8 months in advance: hotel rooms are scarce and prices triple.

May is the ideal month: 20 to 25 degrees, no festival crowds and lower prices. July and August are hot (30 to 35 degrees) and busy. September is excellent: 25 to 29 degrees, beach still lovely and crowds gone. October is recommended for culture lovers: low prices, pleasant weather.

Highlights in Valencia: La Ciudad de las Artes y las Ciencias (futuristic complex by Santiago Calatrava), the Mercat Central (one of the largest covered markets in Europe), Playa de la Malvarrosa (city beach about 5 km from the centre, reachable by tram) and authentic paella valenciana in one of the traditional restaurants around the lake La Albufera.
