The travel pass, and being under 26
Anyone staying more than a few days in Madrid or Barcelona buys a monthly pass rather than single tickets, loaded onto a plastic card. Madrid's abono joven is the one worth knowing about: a single low monthly price for everyone under 26, covering the entire region's metro, buses and commuter rail without zone restrictions, and heavily subsidized as policy rather than promotion. Machines take cards and offer English. The metro itself is clean, frequent and cheap by European standards, and runs until well after midnight — necessarily, given when people go out.
