When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in February around $299 and peak in December near $572, 91% dearer, across the 4 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 8.5 hours outbound, on a 8-night trip — ticketed under Pegasus, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $299 for 5,625 km each way, that works out to about $27 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $43 per 1,000 km that medium-haul fares on this board typically run. Across the 26 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Abu Dhabi, this fare ranks 7th — 28% above the $233 from Vienna. It is also the cheapest of the 12 routes of similar length we watch out of Madrid. The best time to be in Abu Dhabi: Nov–Mar.

Good to know
MAD → AUH, answered.

What is the cheapest month to fly from Madrid to Abu Dhabi?
Across 4 months of cached-fare history, Feb comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Abu Dhabi are Nov–Mar — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book MAD → Abu Dhabi?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet. Answering it honestly means watching the same departure date on this route over many weeks as it approaches, and that archive is still filling up — so any "book N days ahead" figure here would be borrowed from somewhere else rather than measured. What we can measure is which month is cheap: across 4 months of cached fares, Feb comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from Madrid to Abu Dhabi?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Pegasus. We hold no nonstop fare on this route right now, which does not mean none flies — search your exact dates to see what does.
Are these prices guaranteed?
No — these are cached fares found on real searches (this one on 17 October). Airlines reprice constantly, so the booking search re-checks the live price before you pay. Fresher finds are far more likely to still be available.
