Barcelona Airport Bus to the City


Unless you have booked your flight with Ryanair then you will probably be flying into El Prat Barcelona airport. It's the main airport and closest to the city, but it is important to to know how to reach your Barcelona accommodation from the airport.
"El Prat" is located in Llobregat which is an town just outside the city of Barcelona and there are many airline companies which fly in to this airport.

The best way to get to the city centre from the airport is by the Aerobus which is located right outside the terminal and runs every 6 minutes. The journey takes roughly 25 minutes from the airport to it's final destination which is Plaza Catalunya, the main square of the city centre. From there, it should be relatively easy to get to your Barcelona accommodation either via metro or taxi. Just make sure you know where your Barcelona accommodation is beforehand.

A ticket costs €3.90 each journey and make sure you have change because the drivers are not very pleased when you hand over anything more than a €20 note.
