Cheap flights from Vienna to Madrid

School holidays, Christmas and Madrid's summer all tend to push demand on this route, while November is the cheapest month named for Vienna to Madrid flights. Midweek departures and dates just outside school breaks can help, but always check the calendar for local events and flight times. If you are set on a peak week, compare several days before you commit.

Connecting flights add a change of plane and extra time, so compare the total journey, not just the fare. Direct flights are available on this route, but not every date or airline offers one. The listed carriers are Ryanair, Iberia, Jet2, Air Serbia, TAP Portugal, Portug, Volotea, Easyjet, Ajet and Vueling Airlines, with different fare rules on bags, seats and changes. Check what your ticket includes before you book, because the cheapest base price can rise once extras are added.

Before you land, decide how you will leave Barajas and which terminal your flight uses. Madrid's main airport is northeast of the centre, with metro, commuter rail, buses and taxis among the usual ways into town. Watch for late arrivals, terminal changes and the time needed to reach your hotel if your flight lands at night.
