The easiest way I found to get to required track In northern Spain was to fly from Berlin Brandenburg airport to Bordeaux: both "required" airports for me; I had been scheduled into Berlin Brandenburg years ago when it was first supposed to be opened..... an afternoon flight allowed me to travel easily from Hannover and over the lines and curves to the new airport station.
