- Hotels and rural houses in León, El Bierzo and La Maragatería: how to offer transfers to guests arriving by AVE at León station, by air at Barajas or Asturias, or on foot along the Camino
Accommodation in León province takes in more and more guests without a car: they arrive by AVE at León station, by air at Barajas, {{ruta:leon-a-aeropuerto-madrid-barajas:km}} from the capital, or at Asturias, {{ruta:leon-a-aeropuerto-de-asturias:km}} away, and many on foot along the French Way.
- Driving a private hire car in León: León station, La Virgen del Camino airport, Barajas and El Bierzo, and the method and variables for knowing whether a job pays
León is a large, thinly populated, mountainous province, and for a driver that means less frequent and longer jobs than in a city: the link between the villages and León station, the only high-speed one, the airports, La Virgen del Camino when it has a flight, Asturias through the Huerna and Barajas along the A-6, and the appointments at the León and Ponferrada hospitals.
