Getting to Seville: plane

There are many options to arrive to Seville. Plane is the fastest and most comfortable one, especially if you’re coming from an international destination.

Seville is very well connected to the rest of Spain and into Europe.

If you’re coming from outside Europe, however, you will probably fly into Madrid or Barcelona. From there, you can continue to Seville by plane, train, rental car or bus. So a good option to get to Seville from outside of Spain is to fly into San Pablo Airport.

You’re flying to Seville from outside Europe

Whether you’re immediately heading to Seville or you intend to spend a few days in Madrid or Barcelona, you’ll face a dilemma… Some will recommend you taking a high-speed train, others recommend flying. So what should you do?

 

What would be easiest?

If you’re immediately heading to Seville, the easiest would be to fly without a doubt. You are already at the airport and getting to the train station to catch a high-speed train takes time and it’s a hassle.

If you intend to spend a few days in Madrid or Barcelona, the easiest would be to catch a high-speed train. You would depart from the city center and you wouldn’t need to check your luggage, go through security again and all the cumbersome airport procedures.

 

What would be cheapest?

Nevertheless, easiest is not always synonym of cheapest…

The best piece of advice that I can give you in this case is that you check both fares:

Nowadays there’s a lot of competition in Spain both between airlines and railway operators. So your choice of plane or train will basically depend on your budget (how much you want to spend) and your travel comfort (how much hassle you can bear).
