Meeting place at Barajas Airport?

I don't know Barajas Airport very well and need to set a place where I can meet my son there. He will be flying in from Chile on Iberia, and I will be flying in from Geneva on Easy Jet. Does anybody know of a place where I can meet him? We won't have cell phones, unfortunately. Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

You are flying into different terminals, and that makes it complicated.

At what time are the flights arriving?

If you were going to get the metro into Madrid, there could be the option of whoever arrives first waiting at the metro station in the T1-T2-T3 terminals. Boring, but safe.

Anyway, depending on the arrival time we will think of an option.

Bye, Cova

I would say the person who arrives first should make his/her way over to the other terminal and pick a spot where one could sit to wait for the other. Who arrives first?

I m actually flying in the night before, arriving around 7 or 8 pm. My son will arrive the next morning at 7 am.

Thanks so much for your help!

As you are not going to spend the night waitnig for him you should go next morning to terminal 4 and wait for him outside lounge 1.
For the moment in terminal 4 all flights come out from the same door.
So you cannot miss him.
Between landing time and actualy exiting the door with the luggage you have to calculate 30 to 50 minutes.
There is a metro line to terminal 4.
With the station located just under the arrival point.
South american flights very often arrive on time or even a bit on advance.
In any television set in Madrid you can check in channel Telemadrid , txt, page 460-470 arrival times at madrid airport.
