Don´t freak out

A little friendly advice to newbies:

Upon landing at Madrid Barajas, don´t freak out like I did if you have trouble locating a bus to get you where you want to go. I had some trouble initially and started to panic, but it all worked out and I made it to my destination unscathed ...
 
Get a spanish phone number with Airalo. eSim, so no physical SIM card. Easy to use app to add more funds if needed.
Johnnyman, if by this you mean the airport bus going to the Madrid center (Cibeles and Atocha), I also on arrival first had a slight – nearly but not exactly a panic attack – but gave a warning to myself to take it easy – take your time to look around – the next bus will always come around – and eventually I found it (stops outside all three airport terminals). It only costs 2 Euro (a bargain for the trip as compared to taxis!)

Buen camino, Johnnyman!
