When this route gets cheap.
Fares bottom out in May around $303 and peak in October near $713, 135% dearer, across the 8 months we track. The cheapest itinerary we are tracking makes one stop and takes about 15.5 hours outbound, on a 7-night trip — ticketed under Turkish Airlines, which on a connecting fare need not operate every leg. At $303 for 5,768 km each way, that works out to about $26 per 1,000 km flown. That is well under the $43 per 1,000 km that medium-haul fares on this board typically run. Of the 8 departure cities we track at a similar distance from Madrid, this is the cheapest right now — 8% under the next one, Abu Dhabi. It is also the cheapest of the 27 routes of similar length we watch out of New York. The best time to be in Madrid: Apr–Jun · Sep–Oct.

Good to know
NYC → MAD, answered.
Is $303 a good price for New York to Madrid?
Yes — the seasonal median for this route is around $470 round-trip. At $303 you're 36% below that, which we rate great for this route.
What is the cheapest month to fly from New York to Madrid?
Across 8 months of cached-fare history, May comes out cheapest on this route. The best months to actually be in Madrid are Apr–Jun · Sep–Oct — when those overlap, that's your window.
How far in advance should I book NYC → Madrid?
We do not publish a number for this, because we cannot measure it yet.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 8 months of cached fares, May comes out lowest on this route. Our guide Why flight prices change covers what does move a fare.
Are there nonstop flights from New York to Madrid?
The current cheapest fares involve a connection, ticketed under Turkish Airlines. 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.
