An extra hour is fine, but a Spain-to-Czechia truck trip (two days at least) is not. A lot of produce is grown in Almería, in the south of Spain, up to the point that all the hothouses are seen from the orbit as one huge pale blob on the surface. This agricultural powerhouse supplies almost entire Europe, but transportability is a key issue. Spain is located very peripherally in the EU.
