Hi,
Is train the best option (instead of flying) to travel from Granada to Madrid airport (MAD)? If so, what is the name of train station we should use to book? Or do you recommend flying?
We plan to arrive before noon and leave our luggage at a hotel near the airport, then go to the city and back in the evening for the night before we depart next morning from MAD to U.S.
Thanks.

For better or worse, there are not very many trains direct from Granada to Madrid. I ended
up taking a bus to Malaga, from which there are many more options. Also, Iryo competes
with Renfe on this route so prices are likely to be better.
However, I'm not sure you can make it into Madrid before noon with this plan. I'd consider
getting a hotel near Atocha and just taking the airport bus or Cercanias train to the airport.

Thank you both for lots of information. I will think about it more whether to go to Malaga or not and where I should spend our last night in Madrid (hotel near airport or city). Our trip is in October, so I will look into it more.
Thank you again.
