I want to take an Avanza bus from Cuenca to Madrid, arriving at 1 pm, and then take an Alsa bus at 1:30 to somewhere else. Same bus station. Is a half hour enough for layover time? I can't miss the second bus. Kathy

The buses I have taken have been pretty much on time but since they have to deal with traffic they are not as reliable as trains. 30 minutes is a pretty tight connection if you can't miss the second bus. I don't think I would risk it.

Jeff makes a really good point. If you hit some bad traffic heading into Madrid, then you're just plain stuck. 30 minutes doesn't leave you much time for something to go wrong.

My half-hour layover is on a Sunday. Would traffic be just as unpredictable on a Sunday as on other days?
