madrid-barajas-adolfo-suarez-airport
Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suárez Airport is a large and modern airport located in Barajas, Madrid. It is the main international airport in Spain and serves as a hub for various airlines, including IBERIA and Air Europa. The airport offers a wide range of food, beverage, and retail options, ensuring that passengers have plenty to choose from regardless of their gate. One thing to note is that the connecting flight board is not immediately visible upon exiting the airplane. Passengers should head towards the signs for Baggage Claim to find a larger board with the connection information. Additionally, the signage for the tram/train to certain gates could be improved to better indicate the location of elevators for those who require them. Overall, the airport provides a cool and modern atmosphere, ensuring that passengers won't be bored during their time there. It is well-connected to the city through metro stations, making it easily accessible. The newest terminal, T4, is especially aesthetically pleasing and offers a unique yellow color palette. However, duty-free options may be limited, and connecting at T4 can sometimes be slow due to passport clearance. The airport staff is generally friendly and helpful, although the cleanliness of the toilets could be improved. It is recommended to check in early, as the airport can be busy with long lines. Despite some drawbacks, the airport offers a pleasant travel experience overall.

A good selection of shops and food. Well organized. The buildings look fabulous. Duty Free is okay. Pick up a bottle of Yzaguirre 130 Anniversary Vermouth and take a try at plastic wrapping your own luggage.

I came here a few times for business. In the summer of 2019, we stopped over at Madrid for 2 days before flying to Tangier in Morocco. Our biz partner came to pick us up and I had a chance to take a walk and shoot some photos.
