Thanks janrein, will keep that in mind in the future.
zonda, as I am a 3 hours drive northwest of BCN in a nice little mountain country I might as well make the five hour drive to MAD vs getting on a return flight to STN. Had I still lived in BCN it might have made sense to get on a flight, but as it is now it doesn’t. Thanks anyways.
I will be doing my recurrent in Dubai from now on and will try someone there this time around.
