Delays at Madrid Barajas: what to know

Madrid Barajas has four terminals: T1, T2, T3 and T4 with its satellite T4S. Terminal 4 is the base of Iberia and its partners. Delays come from summer thunderstorms, air traffic control limits on busy days and strikes by ground-handling staff. Madrid is also a major gateway to Latin America, where the long-haul €600 band applies. Every departure from Madrid is covered by EU261.
