Hi.
Im going to Lisbon in October. I'm right now trying to book the seats for a travel 21st of October from Madrid to Lisbon. It seems like there are no direct connections or just connections that are reasonable (up to 2 stops). Does any of you know of better connections between the two cities?
Best wishes

Connections are pretty bad between both countries. There used to be a direct night train but no more.
The itinerary through Badajoz is the best, I took it last week (so feel free to ask any questions).
- Alvia Madrid-Atocha - Badajoz 08:51 - ~13:26
- Badajoz - Entrocamento 14:09 - 15:55
- IC Entrocamento - Lisbon 15:59 - 17:00
The Alvia isn't on sale yet and won't be for a couple of weeks. This short booking window is usual for RENFE. Keep checking every other week or so (train is unlikely to sell out).
Alternative would be a direct Flixbus or similar.
