Quintanar del Rey is in La Manchuela conquense. What the area is like and what trips start there

Which way it goes

From Motilla del Palancar the way to Madrid is the A-3, through Tarancón and Arganda; Quintanar del Rey and Villanueva de la Jara first join the motorway at Motilla. For Valencia, the same A-3 runs the other way.

Aeropuerto Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas, seen from Cuenca

Cuenca province has two airports within reach, one on each side: Barajas along the A-3 towards Madrid and Manises along the A-3 towards Valencia. None of its towns has a direct train to a terminal, and for pre-dawn flights a car is the only option that avoids sleeping away from home.

On arrival: Madrid capital

The capital holds the stations, hospitals, trade fairs and most of the region's hotels. The pre-booked trips requested from here are those that leave the municipality: day trips, business transfers to neighbouring provinces and leisure in the southern metro area.

When demand peaks

• Holidays and long weekends (Easter, summer, long weekends and Christmas): At the start and end of holidays, transfers to Barajas from Tarancón and Cuenca increase, as do AVE travellers arriving at Fernando Zóbel and heading on to the villages. First-thing flights and trains are the first to be booked.

Tip: If you are flying from the south-east of the province, compare Barajas with Valencia airport: from Motilla or Quintanar del Rey, Manises can be closer.

Airport pickup

For arrivals, the driver waits in the terminal with a name sign and helps with your luggage. We track the flight number, so a delay costs nothing extra within the terminal’s complimentary waiting time.

What time to leave Quintanar del Rey for your flight

Flight time, minus the airline's check-in window (2 hours for European flights, 3 for long-haul), minus this trip's 167 minutes, 20 minutes of traffic margin and 10 for pickup. The exact pickup time is confirmed in writing when you book; we cover early hours always with an advance booking.

What the price includes

• Door-to-door pickup and help with luggage.

Tolls and parking, where the route requires them, are itemised in the quote and charged to the customer, with one exception: for airport destinations, if traffic calls for it, the route along the radial toll motorways is included at no cost provided there are at least 3 hours between pickup and the flight's departure. With less margin, that toll is itemised in the quote like any other. There are no hidden charges: any supplement is shown in the quote before you confirm.
