Cheap flights from Montpellier to Madrid

March is the cheapest month named for this route, and it is a good starting point when you compare dates. The rest of the year follows school holidays, Christmas and the destination's summer, so fares move up when more people travel. Weekday departures can be cheaper than weekend ones, and early morning flights may be lower than evening ones. Book outside those peaks if your dates are flexible, and compare the dates on the calendar before you choose.

What the fare includes changes by ticket, and extras most often appear in baggage, seat choice and changes. The airlines on this route are Volotea, Air Arabia Maroc, Easyjet, Royal Air Maroc, Air France, HOP!, Transavia France, Norwegian, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines and Norwegian International. Direct flights exist, but some itineraries connect through another city, so check whether your ticket is one flight or two. Read the fare rules before you pay, because the lowest fare line is not always the lowest total.

Arriving late in the day changes the transfer, because public transport runs less often and the airport is outside the city centre. Madrid Barajas is the arrival airport, and the usual ways into town are metro, suburban train, airport bus or taxi. Allow time for the terminal change and passport control if your flight is international. If you land after the last train, a taxi or ride service is the simpler option, and the hotel check-in time matters. Check which terminal your flight uses before you choose the fastest route.
