How to get  to or from Barcelona airport

Barcelona El Prat Josep Tarradellas Airport is located 12 km (7.5 mi) southwest of the Barcelona.

The airport has recently been renamed and receives its current name in homage to a Catalan politician, although it is still known technically as Barcelona-El Prat Airport. It also receives other popular nicknames such as Aeropuerto del Prat or BCN airport. It is the second largest international airport in Spain, after Madrid-Barajas International Airport, and is the first in Catalonia and the Mediterranean coast. 

It has two passenger terminals, terminal T1 and terminal T2. Recent changes in the structure of terminal T2 have meant that what used to be three different terminals, terminal A, terminal B and terminal C, are now united in a single terminal, terminal T2.

AEROBUS

AEROBÚS service operates 365 days a year. The average travel time per journey is 35 minutes. The main departure and pick up points in the city center are Plaza Catlunya & Plaza España. There are two routes A1 to terminal 1 & A2 to terminal 2. Its important to check your getting on the correct service as these buses only serve their designated terminal and not both. If you get on the wrong bus or need to change terminals there is free shuttle bus between terminals and journey time is 5-10 mins.

Barcelona Metro (L9)

The Airport Metro line, called L9 Sud, runs all the way to Barcelona airport and has stops at both T1 and T2 (Terminal 1 and Terminal 2). These stops are called Aeroport T2 and Aeroport T1.

It is important to consider how long it would take you to reach one of the stations that link to L9 Sud line.  This is because the L9 line does not directly pass through the major transport hubs such as Plaça de Catalunya, Estació Sants or Plaça España.

It´s only recommended to take this metro if you need to go to one of the areas on the route. For the city centre we recommend you take a more direct option such as the Aerobus or Train

RENFE TRAIN

There is a direct train that operates from terminal 2 and serves stations Sants & Passeig de Gracia. There is a regular train service that opertates every 30 mins and will take around 30 mins. If you are travelling early morning or late at night its advisable to check the times as its possible they may not operate.
