Madrid Barajas-- T4 and TS

I have a flight landing in T4 on Vueling from Barcelona and a flight leaving in T4S with Iberia to Dubrovnik. I know that there is a 4min train ride from T4 to T4S, but will I have to go through security once I reach T4S or will I be able to go directly to my gate? I only have about an hour in between landing and take-off, and I'm a little bit nervous about missing my connection. Thanks!

I did this last week. It took us about 25 mins to get to our gate for the connection. Did go thru security again but it was quick.

Thanks! Was the train easy to find from T4? I'm hoping to hop off my flight, jump on the train, go through security, and run to my gate with a boarding pass already printed out and just a carry-on.

Very easy. Everything is very clearly marked. The signs even tell you how many minutes until you reach your gate area. Be sure to double check your departure gate. They changed ours on a previous trip and it was a loooooooonnnnnng walk to the new gate. Great airport but huge.

they also now have a fast security line for those with short connections, or at least they did on my last trip. The person at security who checks your boarding pass will shuffle you into a shorter special line if you are pressed for time.

The fast lane was there the 1st week in May and it saved my gate arrival...

Thanks everyone! I will be flying with Iberia for my connection so I plan on downloading the mobile boarding pass too to make things a bit quicker. Good news on the faster security line!
