How to go from Madrid Airport to Gran Via? - Young ethnic man in earbuds listening to music while waiting for transport at contemporary subway station

I've seen several options using bus and subway in Google Maps, but I am looking for both the fastest and the cheapest way. I am also looking for a way to do that with the least number of line or interface changes.



Best Answer

Without doubt, the best option is the subway. You have to jump into the Metro line number 8 (the only one at Barajas Airport), then change to line 4 (Argüelles) and wait more than one hour until you arrive to Alonso Martinez stop. Then change to line 5 (Aluche) and only two stops later you are in Gran Via stop. The ticket is between 4'50 and 5 euros (depends on the final station).

Anyway, think that Gran Via is a big street and maybe you are more interested in other nearby stop.
