Barcelona Airport

Barcelona Airport

Barcelona Airport Terminal 1, pic1

The Barcelona Airport is the second most important airport in Spain and still growing.
According to year 2008 statistics, it handled an average of 83.000 passenger per day. This may be a good reason to grow!

Barcelona Airport Terminal 1, pic3

For the time being, it has two terminals: the new terminal T1 and terminal T2 (which encloses the former terminals A, B and C). Look at the Airport map.

How to get from one to another? There is a bus shuttle service connecting both terminals. From Plaza Catalunya you can take the Aerobus A1 to get to T1, or the Aerobus A2 to get to T2.

The new terminal T1 will be full operative from October 2009 and will probably handle over 70% of Barcelona Airport flights.


Where is it?

Barcelona Airport Terminal 1, pic2

The airport is located at approximately 12Km from Barcelona City, direction south-west.

This is a reasonable short distance. Just compare it with some other European airports.

You can check its location here and have an idea of the easy access to Barcelona City.

 

 



Transportation Options

Want to travel From/To Barcelona Airport?
There are several options according to your budget and/or in case you travel with a group.

In any case, do not waste your time by seeking around.
Believe me, you can only benefit up to the last cent by following my best suggestions here.

 

Terminal T1



It is for most of the international flights.

In this new terminal you will also find airlines that are part of those global alliances like Oneworld, Staralliance and even for those airlines which have some kind of agreement with them.

This terminal is also used for the shuttle service Barcelona-Madrid. At certain hours, there are up to four flights per hour, totalizing more than 30 daily flights.

 

Terminal T2

This terminal encloses the former terminals A, B and C. For the time being, it is reserved for some international flights and also for some regional flights.

 

What kind of Facilities can You Find?

Looking for smoking areas, eh?
No, no! You have no chances inside the terminals. Only outside.

Even though I am not listing all the airport facilities, located mainly at terminals T1, T2A and T2B, here you have what can be of interest for you including what I call surrounding facilities:

  • Banks
  • Money exchange
