Which airline to choose for flying first class to Madrid?

Madrid is an important hub in Europe for connecting flights to South America. It is also a destination often visited by tourists. Flying within Europe will often lead to buying a cheap ticket from a low-budget airline, but if you want to fly in business class, you will have to look further. Iberia however does offer business class. You will have double the space in the plane which is convenient if some work needs to be done. However, if you want a truly exceptional service or fly in first class, it is better to opt for airlines such as Air France or Lufthansa.

Why choose Madrid as your destination?

Madrid is a city of millions in the heart of Spain. In winter it can get quite cold and in summer it can get quite warm. This Spanish capital is by far one of the most important cities in terms of culture, politics, and economics. Besides, it also has quite some tourist attractions worth visiting, making it a perfect destination for those who wish to combine business with pleasure.

What to do in Madrid?

Plaza Mayor

The Plaza Mayor is the most visited square in Madrid. The square, formerly actually called Plaza del Arrabal, was created in 1577. It was the site of local markets, but also bullfights and public executions. From 1619, large apartment buildings were built around the square and in the mid-nineteenth century the equestrian statue of Felipe III, made by Giovanni de Bologna and his pupil Pietro Tacca, was placed in the square.

 

After a major fire at the end of the nineteenth century, the events that were held in the square came to an end. However, the festivities have now returned and you can attend various celebrations, cultural events, and the annual Christmas market.

Prado National Museum

Right next to the Parque de el Retiro and the Real Jardín Botánico is the Museo Nacional del Prado, one of the largest art museums in Madrid and Spain. The collection consists of more than 7000 images, 5000 drawings, 2000 prints, 2000 conceptual works of art, and 1000 coins and medals.

 

The Prado in Madrid is best known for its large collection of paintings from the fourteenth to the nineteenth century. You will even find the largest collection of Spanish paintings there! The masterpieces are those of El Greco, Goya and Velásquez. In addition, the museum also houses a large collection of Italian and Flemish works by artists such as Caravaggio, Titian, Rubens, and Bosch.

Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia

The Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sofia is the second-largest art museum in Madrid. The museum is located in an eighteenth-century hospital and focuses mainly on modern art. In contrast to the Prado, you will find mainly Spanish works from the twentieth century spread over 3 floors.

 

You can admire works by Miró, Solano, Gris, Tàpies, and Gargallo, among others, but by far the most famous work is Picasso's Guernica, his greatest masterpiece. In addition, there are also many world-famous works by the Spanish artist Salvador Dalí.
