I am completing the Camino Frances in stages. I have to leave from HONTANAS or Castrojeriz to get on a plane in Madrid this time.

Does anyone know:
How do I get to Madrid from Castrojeriz?

How do I get to Madrid from Hontanas?

I have to get on a plane in Madrid by 1 PM so I probably need to be in Madrid the day before.

The ALSA bus first stops in downtown Madrid and you change to a waiting bus back out tothe airport. Unless things have changed, ALSA makes but few rest stops requiring pasengers to possess a watermellon sized bladder. Plan well

On my first camino I got a taxi from Castrojeriz back to Burgos then a bus to Madrid airport. There is an early morning bus from Castrojeriz (well there was in 2013 but only Monday to Friday) to Burgos but unfortunately for me I was travelling on a Saturday. You could see if there is a bus to Fromista where you can get a train
