If it’s in the timetable, there’s a good chance the flight is going to run. Currently, there is no direct link between Madrid and Shanghai – with most people having to route via Europe (either with BA, or one of the SkyTeam/Star Alliance or via the Gulf with Qatar/Etihad/Emirates ).
Direct links are always welcome.
