Traveling by train is surprisingly the easier method of transportation in Spain over airplanes. That is mostly due in part to the lack of intense security screenings and the efficient placement of train stations. Spain has taken the initiative a step further by allowing consumers to purchase their tickets online directly from the governing agency, Renfe, leading to cheaper fares.
Key Takeaways:
- Traveling by train in Spain is convenient
- Planning ahead about 60 days before traveling to find more options for cheap fare tickets
- Accessing the Renfe website to order tickets can be temperamental and a challenge, and may be difficult to navigate if you do not understand Spanish or are ordering from an outside country
“A few train routes, such as the 2.5-hour ride from Barcelona to Madrid, are speedier than flying because of the train stations’ central location and the minimal security checks to board a train.”
