Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, seen from Salamanca

Barajas is the airport for almost every flight from Salamanca province, a little over two hundred kilometres from the capital. No train arrives in time for first-thing flights, and from Béjar or Ciudad Rodrigo departure is earlier still.

When demand peaks

• Start and end of the academic year (September and June): At the start and end of the academic year thousands of students arrive and leave, many from abroad, with luggage and flights from Barajas. In those weeks it is best to book the airport transfer well ahead.
• Holy Week in Salamanca (Easter week): The processions wind through the old town and coincide with many visitors and with holiday departures towards Barajas. Streets close as the brotherhoods pass, and the pickup point should be outside the route.

Tip: If you are staying in Salamanca's old town, give the exact address: traffic is restricted and the driver stops at the nearest access point.

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 Alba de Tormes at least 182 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.
