Let's ride Renfe ♫

Traveling within Spain

Bus tours🚌
Domestic flights✈️

While there are options like bus tours🚌, domestic flights✈️, and more, those with tight travel schedules often want to shorten their travel time.
High-speed trains depart from the city center and are comfortable🙌

Introducing a guide to choosing and riding trains, different from Japan📝

⭕️Choosing a ticket⭕️
High-speed rail companies that connect Spain
Choose from Renfe, Ave, and Oimo👍
Prices vary widely depending on the company and time of day.
If you're bringing a large suitcase, it may not be the cheapest ticket, but
you can add a luggage allowance option for one person🙌

⭕️When booking⭕️
When purchasing online, please allow plenty of time, as credit card payments often fail.⏳

The earlier you book, the more early bird promotions you can take advantage of.
Checking closer to your trip may reveal that the price has dropped.✨
Tickets without options require a fee for date and time changes. So, even if the price had dropped,
there's not much point in rebooking...
But considering the possibility that tickets might sell out, this might be unavoidable. 🤔

There are also times when trains are pet-friendly. 🐕
Those with animal allergies should be careful. 🖐️

⭕️When boarding⭕️
I keep an eye on the signboard in front of the platform. 👀
Sometimes the boarding gate number doesn't appear until 5 minutes before departure, which can be stressful...
There are also times when I don't know what line it is for and announcements are hard to hear. 📢
To avoid being left behind, ask around if you're unsure. 🤣

🏖️Station Atmosphere/Amenities: Atocha Station is air-conditioned.
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　The baggage security level and the boarding area may be on different floors.

💰Price per person: Varies depending on season, time of day, and company.

📍Where to buy: Inside the station/Online

⚠️Caution: While there are free restrooms in the train waiting rooms, they are often crowded and don't have tissues.👋
　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　If you're pressed for time, it might be more comfortable to wait until you use the restroom on the train.😣
