Transportation To Center of Madrid

The capital is connected by air to the main European and American cities, and by road and train to all Spanish cities. The official name of Madrid airport is Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas airport. It has 4 Terminals at different distances from the city center and is located 15 minutes by light train from the city center and the two main train stations, Atocha and Chamartín, are situated on both ends of the Castellana.

Via Public Transportation:

8 Line (the pink one) connects, in approximately 15 minutes, all the terminals of the airport with the “Nuevos Ministerios” station in the center of Madrid.

There are two metro stations that connect Barajas airport with the city:
Terminals T1-T2-T3 station and Terminal T4 station.

Actually there is the option to get the  Tarjeta Multi, a contactless, transferable smartcard that is valid for 10 years and which is free when you purchase the 1,2, 3, 5 or 7-day Tourist Travel Pass.  It allows you to use all types of public transport in the Region of Madrid.

If you do not wish to acquire a Tourist Travel Pass, you can buy the Tarjeta Multi (2.5€) and simply top it up with pay-per-ride tickets.

Alternative Transportation Options:

There is also a large taxi fleet, who’s prices are also very reasonable. The journey from Barajas airport to the city center comes to around 30 euros by taxi, depending of the area you are staying.
