Guide · Arriving
From Barajas
to Madrid.
Barajas sits on the north-east edge of the city. Here is what the ride into town costs and how a private arrival changes it.
Taxi: €33 fixed inside the M-30
Madrid City Council sets a fixed fare of €33 for taxi journeys between the airport and any address inside the M-30 ring road, 24 hours a day, every day of the year, with no supplements. It applies to all terminals. Outside the M-30 (La Moraleja, Pozuelo, Aravaca and the northern suburbs) the meter applies.
Pre-booked car or chauffeur
We arrange a private car with driver: in the arrivals hall at T1–T4, or, on private flights, at the aircraft itself. Without traffic, the drive to the centre takes about 20 to 30 minutes; at rush hour, allow more.

Arriving by private jet
Private flights arrive at the Terminal de Aviación Ejecutiva, on the south side of the airport, not at T1–T4. Passport control and customs are done there, the handler brings your luggage, and your car collects you at the terminal: usually a few minutes from landing to the road. The executive terminal →
Car arrangements at the executive terminal are confirmed by your handler with the itinerary.
