MADRID-BARCELONA it's the busiest sector in Europe by a wide margin .Please don't post more lies in Wikipedia. You can read the EUROSTAT official european statistics here:
http://epp.eurostat.ec.europa.eu/cache/ITY_OFFPUB/KS-NZ-06-002/EN/KS-NZ-06-002-EN.PDF
DUB-LHR it's the busiest INTERNATIONAL intra-european sector with more than 2 Millions in 2004, while MAD-BCN it's the BUSIEST EUROPEAN SECTOR with more than 4 Millions passengers every year. I have corrected AGAIN the modification that falsely said MAD-BCN as the second busiest ... .
Another time an irish user ( Tracing route to 83-70-70-134.b-ras1.srl.dublin.eircom.net [83.70.70.134] ) have modified the article with FALSE statestment like this:
"Between Barcelona El Prat airport and Madrid Barajas, 4,444,262 passengers were transfered in 2005 , making it the second busiest european sector, behind Dublin-London .This route it's called "Puente Aereo" (Air Bridge) ."
IT'S FALSE .
Even adding DUB-LHR , DUB-STN and DUB-GTW , they don't reach the MADRID-BARCELONA city pair also.
In term of airport to airport part MAD-BCN (4.571.073) , doubled DUB-LHR (2 Millions) in 2005 .
Also to note the huge new Terminal ( south terminal) under construction rigt now, to enter service in 2008.
[edit] Internet/wi-fi
I'm just about to add a small section on internet access at the airport. Hopefully you find this relevant! I travel a lot and (sad I admit) sometimes my route decision will depend on being able to check my email during a 3-hour layover or not. I plan to add this information to a few of the airport articles. Additionally, maybe it would be an idea to have a larger section on "facilities" with internet access somewhere within it?
