SCENE 01 / TRAVEL LOGISTICS
Travel & Logistics Services
Complete travel coordination and logistics for productions across Spain.
Travel logistics for film production in Spain encompass the planning and coordination of international flights into Madrid Barajas and Barcelona El Prat, AVE high-speed rail connections, ground transportation, accommodations, Schengen visa processing, and equipment shipping. Spain's excellent AVE network connects Madrid, Barcelona, Seville, and Valencia efficiently, while the Canary Islands require domestic flights.
We manage production travel logistics across Spain from initial planning through daily operations on location. Our team coordinates flights, AVE rail bookings, hotel arrangements across Madrid, Barcelona, and regional locations, ground transport, visa applications for non-EU crew, and equipment shipping through Spanish customs.

On Location
MAD/BCN/AGP/SVQ/BIO/VLC/ALC gateways, Renfe AVE high-speed rail backbone, Canary Islands inter-island ferries, and Schengen overland routes to Portugal and France
Here is how this works in practice. Spanish travel logistics start at the gateway and cascade through the country's extraordinary rail network. We route principal arrivals into MAD (Madrid-Barajas Adolfo Suárez) — Iberia's intercontinental hub with LATAM and Aeroméxico connections. And BCN (Barcelona-El Prat) for productions anchored on the Mediterranean coast. Secondary access through AGP (Málaga-Costa del Sol) serves Andalucía shoots, SVQ (Sevilla) feeds Real Alcázar and Plaza de España approvals. BIO (Bilbao) anchors Basque Country and Game of Thrones Dragonstone (San Juan de Gaztelugatxe) work. VLC (Valencia) and ALC (Alicante) cover Mediterranean assignments.
Here is the short of it. While TFS/TFN (Tenerife) and LPA (Las Palmas). Alongside ACE (Lanzarote) and FUE (Fuerteventura). Handle the Canary Islands' 50% tax-rebate productions including Solo: A Star Wars Story. Wonder Woman 1984, Fast & Furious 6. And In the Heart of the Sea. Iberia, Vueling, Air Europa, Iberia Express, Ryanair, EasyJet, and Volotea provide the carrier mix; we negotiate group fares, gear freight. And flexible-change clauses that survive a Spaghetti Western reschedule out of Almería. EUR currency, IVA at 21% standard, and Schengen entry simplify European-crew onboarding; non-EU travelers route through Extranjería work visas filed in advance of departure.
Here is the breakdown. Inside Spain, our team treats Renfe's AVE high-speed rail as production infrastructure: Madrid-Barcelona in 2h30, Madrid-Sevilla in 2h30, Madrid-Málaga in 2h30. And Madrid-Valencia in 1h45 collapse the country into single-day production swings. We book AVE seats in production blocks, set up gear-truck convoys on the A-2, A-4, A-7, and AP-7 motorways for kit that can't fly. And stage Canary Islands inter-island moves through Naviera Armas and Fred. Olsen ferries between Tenerife, Gran Canaria, Lanzarote, and Fuerteventura.
Here is what that looks like on the ground. Crew housing flexes from Madrid (Hotel Ritz, Four Seasons, Hyatt Centric Gran Vía) and Barcelona (Hotel Arts, W Barcelona, Mandarin Oriental) into production apartments through Apartamentos Madrid and Eric Vökel. Plus pension-style accommodations near Almería's Tabernas desert and Mallorca's Tramuntana range. Schengen overland routes carry productions into Portugal (Madrid-Lisbon 6h) and France (Barcelona-Perpignan 1h45) without border friction. Our coordinators handle AEAT ATA carnet customs, Extranjería visa packages, per-diem reconciliation in Euros. And 24/7 rebooking through every Semana Santa holiday block and August national-vacation shutdown. Delivering 15-25% savings versus standard channels on rate-locked production framework agreements.
