Ávila to Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas transfer

The journey

The transfer from Ávila (Ávila) to Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas covers around 119.9 kilometres and takes about 78 minutes. We collect you at the address you give us and drop you exactly at your destination, with no changes and no waiting.

Leaving from Ávila y el Valle Amblés

The city of Ávila, with the Amblés valley below it, holds the hospital, the railway station, public offices and the tourism around the walls. It is where the northern half of the province comes for appointments and paperwork, and the starting point for most transfers to Madrid and Barajas.

Which way it goes

From Ávila to Madrid the route is the AP-51 toll road to Villacastín and then the AP-6, which crosses the mountains through the Guadarrama tunnel and continues as the A-6; toll-free, the N-110 and the Alto del León pass. For Barajas the route skirts Madrid on the M-40 or M-50, and the conventional train via El Escorial stops in Madrid, not at the airport.

Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, seen from Ávila

From Ávila province there is no way to reach Barajas without changing in Madrid, and the first trains do not arrive in time for the earliest flights. From the Tiétar valley there is no train at all: a car is the only practical option.

When demand peaks

• Snow on the passes (December to March): Snow and ice affect the Pico pass, the Gredos crossings and the Alto del León, and Ávila, at over a thousand metres, has very cold mornings. In winter, trips across the mountains need more margin.

Tip: From the Tiétar valley to Barajas, say so when booking: the route heads to Madrid down the valley rather than through Ávila, and the pickup time is worked out differently.

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.

For early flights

We recommend leaving Ávila at least 123 minutes before you want to be at the check-in desk. We operate through the night, 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 and no surge pricing.
