Once the pair were on the plane, they inflated life jackets and played with the crew's flashlights, The Local.es reported.
They also smashed up the landing wheel and the radio in the cockpit.
Police arrested both teens, who allegedly said they were just having fun.
The 16-year-old will stand trial in Madrid's juvenile court and the 19-year-old is also facing charges.
