Hello fellow travelers! I am hoping someone who has transferred between different airlines/bookings in the Madrid airport can give me some guidance. I am traveling from Santiago de Compostela to Madrid (Ryanair) and then from Madrid to Boston (JetBlue) on Sunday, Oct 12. Both should be in Terminal 1, looks like the farther gates, though (A1-A4). No checked bags and will have boarding passes on phone (no check in required). First flight lands at 11:30, next flight is at 1:30. JetBlue's suggested time for arrival at Madrid airport is 2 hours before scheduled departure. This Ryanair flight looks to usually land on time or a bit early. I should be ok, correct? I wasn't nervous until I started reading forum posts about self transfers in Madrid! If anyone has experience navigating this type of connection, I would love to hear about it.
UPDATE: Updating in case others search this and wonder how it went! We had plenty of time, even with a slight delay in our RyanAir flight from Santiago (the king was in Madrid for Spain Day and there was a Spanish Air Force flyover). We did have to go through passport control (no wait or line) but we did NOT have to go through security again in Spain. It was a long walk gate to gate, but we had ample time to get there and have lunch before our flight to the US boarded. This was all in Terminal 1 in Madrid.
