Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, seen from Ciudad Real

From Ciudad Real you can reach Barajas by AVE, changing at Atocha, but with luggage and for early flights a direct car avoids the change. From eastern La Mancha, with no high-speed rail, a car is almost the only comfortable option.

On arrival: Madrid capital

The capital holds the stations, hospitals, trade fairs and most of the region's hotels. The pre-booked trips requested from here are those that leave the municipality: day trips, business transfers to neighbouring provinces and leisure in the southern metro area.

When demand peaks

• Holiday departures (Easter, summer and Christmas): At the start and end of the holidays, high-speed trains to Madrid and Andalusia and transfers to Barajas from all over the province fill up at the same time. The first flights and first trains of the day are the first to run out of space.

Tip: If you are catching the AVE at Ciudad Real or Puertollano, give the train time when booking: the driver works out the pickup so you reach the access check in good time.

Airport pickup

For arrivals, the driver waits in the terminal with a name sign and helps with your luggage. We track the flight number, so a delay costs nothing extra within the terminal’s complimentary waiting time.

What time to leave Manzanares for your flight

Flight time, minus the airline's check-in window (2 hours for European flights, 3 for long-haul), minus this trip's 136 minutes, 20 minutes of traffic margin and 10 for pickup. The exact pickup time is confirmed in writing when you book; we cover early hours always with an advance booking.

What the price includes

• Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.
• Complimentary waiting and flight or train tracking.
• Child restraint systems if you need them.
• The 10 % Spanish VAT on passenger transport.

Tolls and parking, where the route requires them, are itemised in the quote and charged to the customer, with one exception: for airport destinations, if traffic calls for it, the route along the radial toll motorways is included at no cost provided there are at least 3 hours between pickup and the flight's departure. With less margin, that toll is itemised in the quote like any other. There are no hidden charges: any supplement is shown in the quote before you confirm.
