Activities & latest news in Madrid

From Royal Splendor to Tapas Benders

Madrid, where centuries of royal extravagance meet the sheer joy of stuffing your face with tapas. It’s a city where you can pretend to be classy while secretly just waiting for your next snack. Today, your clients will get a whirlwind tour of palatial splendor, followed by a shameless tapas binge, because history is best absorbed on a full stomach.

Pretend to Be Fancy: The Royal Palace Tour

First up, they’ll step into the Royal Palace, aka the Spanish version of "Extreme Makeover: Monarchy Edition." This place is so big it makes Buckingham Palace look like a starter home. As your clients stroll through rooms dripping in gold and velvet, they’ll wonder how anyone managed to live here without bumping into a chandelier or tripping over a marble statue. But hey, if you’re going to rule a country, why not do it in style? Just don’t let them get too attached—they can’t take the chandeliers with them.

Tapas Time: When in Spain, Eat Everything

After feigning sophistication at the palace, it’s time to get real—real full, that is. The tour takes a delicious detour through Madrid’s old town, where the tapas bars await like little shrines to culinary joy. Think crispy patatas bravas, sizzling chorizo, and ham so good it practically sings to you. Your clients will hop from bar to bar, grazing like food-obsessed royalty, discovering why "siesta" really just means "I ate too much and now I need to lie down."

Plaza Mayor and Puerta del Sol: The Walk-It-Off Phase

Post-tapas, they’ll waddle over to Plaza Mayor, where the architecture is grand, the street performers are questionable, and the people-watching is prime. It’s the perfect place to sit and digest—err, admire the scenery. Then, it’s off to Puerta del Sol, the beating heart of Madrid, where they can snap a selfie with the famous "Bear and the Strawberry Tree" statue. Because nothing says, "I visited Madrid," like a bear inexplicably hugging a tree.

The Perfect Day in Madrid: Royals, Snacks, and Instagram Glory

By the end of this day, your clients will have gotten their fill of royal history, consumed more tapas than they thought humanly possible, and collected enough Instagram content to last them a week. They’ll leave Madrid with a newfound love for both chandeliers and jamón—and possibly a need for stretchy pants.

American Airlines Expands Routes for Summer 2025 - Get Ready for a European Adventure 

Just as you’re cozying up with pumpkin spice lattes and oversized scarves, American Airlines is plotting something big for your summer 2025 travel plans. Forget raking leaves; it's time to plan your escape to Europe. AA is adding five brand-new routes to its European network, and trust us, you’ll want to pack your bags for these destinations: Edinburgh, Athens, Madrid, Milan, and Rome. Yes, that means more transatlantic flights to whisk you away to dreamy places where carbs don’t count, and the architecture is older than the internet.

Castles, Pasta, and Mythology – Oh My!

Let’s break it down: say you are joining the migratory or traveling population and you are flying out of Philadelphia (PHL), you can say you are the chosen one. The journey does not end there because apart from over 80 domestic points you get to connect, there are about 17 new routes across the Atlantic among them one to Edinburgh in Scotland. Get comfortable because if its currently winter where you are, very soon travellers will be exchanging their cheesesteaks for haggis (or not) as they roam around ancient castles wondering if they are secret beings of royalty.

Going to Italy? Well, it seems like American Airlines has got you covered as it recently introduced Miami (MIA) Rome (FCO) flights and PHL Milan (MXP) flights. By 2025, expect that American will roll out Italian destinations more than you have pasta recipes, making sure that summer leaves you, pizza, art and those dreamlike landscapes that give your instagram followers the worst of FOMO.

Charlotte to Athens anyone? The new route from Charlotte to Athens will get you to Acropolis country before you can utter civilization. And having four daily services to Greece by 2025, American is going to be the airline with the most knowledge on greek mythology.

Tapas, Sun, and Siestas: Chicago to Madrid

If using Atlanta to reach Spain is not your style, then there's nothing to be worried about. The American hub (ORD) located in Chicago is joining the fray emerging from the mumbai heat with its new route to Madrid. Now you can cross the ocean and find yourself in the land of Flamenco and Sangria and Spanish siestas. Should you decide to fly out of Madrid, the American airline’s hubs will allow you to navigate around Europe, Africa and the Middle East for those who want to travel but don’t want to commit.

More Flights, More Fun

If for whatever reason summer 2025 currently lacks plans for lounging with a cocktail in a beach club somewhere in Europe, American Airlines is going all in with over 70 departures per day to more than 20 transatlantic destinations. They will also be working on popular Kosharov routes such as CPH, NAP and NCE after supporting summer 2024, because more time in the land of Danish pastries, Neapolitan Pizzas and French Riviera never hurts anyone.

Ladies and Gentlemen, for the romantics, American’s winter service to Paris from Miami is sticking around for the summer season even. “Great,” said nobody, because now you can plan that picture-perfect Eiffel Tower moment during summer as well.

Bonus: Expanding Premium Offerings to Asia

Oh, and if Europe isn’t enough for you, American is also pumping up its routes to Asia for summer 2025. Bigger planes will connect Dallas-Fort Worth (DFW) and Los Angeles (LAX) to Japan, making sure you’ve got plenty of space to stretch out and dream about sushi as you head to Tokyo and beyond. With easy connections to over 30 destinations across Japan and East Asia, your passport is about to get a serious workout.

American Airlines Expands Routes for Summer 2025

So, what are you waiting for? Summer 2025 is practically begging you to take a European (or Asian) adventure, and American Airlines is making sure you get there with style, convenience, and probably more than one in-flight snack.
