- Airport hours, customs, slots and restrictions must be confirmed with the airport. Runway length alone does not establish operational suitability.

Spain's largest hub with an executive aviation terminal on the south-east side, 25 minutes from Paseo de la Castellana. Slots are coordinated and taxi times can be long, but 24-hour operations and four runways make it reliable for long-haul and heavy aircraft. High-altitude field: check hot-day performance.
