For all those who have expressed frustration over the past several days about the Spanish national rail website, its techs appear to slowly, but surely, restoring schedules that somehow disappeared over the Christmas season. At one point, nothing was available after January 30th, when usually tickets are put on sale 62 full days in advance. Some schedules are still not in place, but should be in the next few days. Spain is just recovering from its loooong Christmas break, with Three Kings Day, or Epiphany, celebrated on Wednesday.
Just a reminder that technicians seem to start loading the new tickets into the database at midnight, Spanish time, 62 days in advance. That means that, for most of the year, those tickets start appearing at 6 pm the evening before in the Eastern time zone here in North America. It may take an hour or two before they're all loaded in but, with judicious timing, North Americans can get the jump on most Europeans in snagging tickets at up to 62% off...and they're printable at home.
