Halleluja! This is great news!

Santiago - Madrid has seen prices increase a lot after Spanair pulled their route, Vueling pulled their route, AirEuropa pulled their route... leaving Iberia with a monopoly.

Starting November 18th two flights per day to Madrid will do wonders. These planes will be full, I guarantee that since Iberia are not very popular in Galicia after their price hikes lately. This makes Madrid a nice Ryanair hub. The full news here:

Jiippii!

Have just done a quick search on Ryanair for the new flights from Madrid to SdC to get an idea of the cost..

0.90 euros each way!!! (for the first few days at least) Incredible. Wish i was able to take advantage of the offer!
