Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas Airport now shows Rosario as a destination on its departure screens. The first plane of the new direct route took off this Thursday, and the return of the connection was celebrated in Argentina after 40 years without a link to Europe.
The airport Adolfo Suárez Madrid-Barajas now includes Rosario among its destinations. The flight World2Fly 2W2075, operated with an Airbus A350-941 registered EC-NTB, took off this Thursday from Madrid at 15:38 Spanish time (10:38 in Argentina) and is scheduled to land at the Malvinas Islands International Airport in Fisherton around 17:37, according to redboing.com.
The image of the departure screens at Barajas showing Rosario as a destination circulated on social media and was shared by the mayor of the Argentine city, Pablo Javkin.
I received these photos of the departure screen from Madrid. After 40 years, Rosario is once again connected to the world. It was unthinkable a few years ago to see the city as a destination on the screens of European airports," the mayor expressed.
The same plane that arrives in Fisherton will be responsible for making the first direct flight of the new Rosario-Madrid route. The connection starts with two weekly frequencies between the Argentine city and the Spanish capital.
The operation marks the return of a direct link between Rosario and Europe, a connection that had not operated for four decades. The 10,000 kilometers that separate the two cities will now be covered by these two flights per week.
