Data point from Friday 9/14

scheduled arrival 2:20 pm
actual arrival 1:40 pm T4S
reach immigration 1:55 pm
line is scary but only 15 minutes 2:10pm
elevator to train/train/ through T4 security 2:25pm
up to floor with departure gates and pit stop 2:33
At gate K82 2:45pm

Didn’t feel like I really had enough time for the Plaza Mayor lounge even though I am a Priority Pass member, But it turns out I could’ve because boarding was late. So an hour and five minutes gate to gate; with my original scheduled arrival time into MAD and onward departure it would have been pretty anxiety producing. Glad my TATL arrived early.
