Why depart from Madrid?
Madrid Barajas is Iberia's hub and the natural European departure point for Latin American routes, where Iberia's Group 3 pricing is often sharper than London.
FareEngine scans European departure airports in real time specifically because fares from gateway hubs frequently undercut the equivalent Heathrow price by hundreds of pounds. The positioning flight — a short hop in economy — costs a fraction of the saving, and for many UK travellers it adds no more than an hour to the overall door-to-door journey time.
