Trains to Madrid

April (2013)
I am planning on flying back to the US from Madrid after I've walked the Camino, and I will need to be at the airport by 8:00 a.m. Are there any red eye trains from Santiago that would get me to Madrid before 8 in the morning?
 
Technical backpack for day trips with backpack cover and internal compartment for the hydration bladder. Ideal daypack for excursions where we need a medium capacity backpack. The back with Air Flow System creates large air channels that will keep our back as cool as possible.

Hola

Unfortunately not. The overnight TrenHotel doesn't arrive in Madrid until 8.02 - after a journey of 9.5 hours. The afternoon train leaves at 16.05 and arrive at 21.48 - then you have an overnight in Madrid or at the airport.

There is a 6.40am flight from Santiago to Madrid but it doesn't arrive until 7.50 leaving no margin for error.

There is a bus. I took it once for the most miserable travel experience of my life!

Santiago Compostela Aeropuerto Madrid-barajas T4 21:30 07:00 9h 30min 44.95€ LMXJVSD
 
Ideal sleeping bag liner whether we want to add a thermal plus to our bag, or if we want to use it alone to sleep in shelters or hostels. Thanks to its mummy shape, it adapts perfectly to our body.

Miserable yes...but it still won't get the pilgrim there in time for their flight!
 
I'm starting to think about how to get home AFTER my first Camino in May - July 2013. I'll be heading for Germany from SDC. Any ideas? Train? Planes? Bus? I have no objection to leaving from Madrid, Barcelona, etc. if there is an inexpensive way to get there (other than walking, LOL). Thanks for any information.
 
Currently there are flights on RyanAir on Wed., Thur., and Sat. from Santiago to Frankfurt for about 30E.
