Barajas International Airport is about 15-20 minutes from Madrid. It is connected to
the city by the Metro line eight. Taxis from the airport to the city center cost about €25. In February 2006, a
huge new terminal building, designed by Britain's Richard Rogers and Spain's Antonio Lamela, was inaugurated at
Barajas. All One World alliance flights depart from the new Terminal 4 (T4) as well as the low cost carrier
Vueling and other unaffiliated carriers. The Metro connection between the airport (and the new T4 terminal) and
the rest of the system has been finished. There is a supplement of €1 on the regular metro ticket for the airport
line. Bus services run from the remaining terminals to T4 and there are additional bus services running from the
center of Madrid (Plaza Colón and Avenida de América). There are plans for a commuter train link from Atocha and
Chamartín to the airport. Two smaller airports, Torrejón and Cuatro Vientos, also serve the city.
