I booked our tickets in advance online. The process was simple and easy. Finding the bus at the airport in Barcelona was easy once we figured out where the front of Terminal 1 was! The bus dropped us off at Plaça Catalunya, right near our hotel, and the return trip to the airport was equally as easy and quick. Nice, clean buses too. I would definitely use Aerobus again!

The process of getting to the airport was so easy using the Aerobus! The pick up spot was a three minute walk from where I was staying. I purchased my ticket ahead of time, walked to the spot, got on, and 30 minutes later I was at the airport. Could not have been easier! The bus was clean, cool, and efficient! Perfect!

Great service. As soon as we left the airport at 10:30 PM, we waited about 15 minutes for the bus that took us to the center. We got off at Universitat Square, just a stone's throw from our hotel. The bus is very spacious and has designated areas for luggage.

Extremely fast, frequent departures with short intervals, convenient stop at the airport, competitive travel time to the metro. Almost equivalent costs. Recommended.

Barcelona's Aerobus service is fast and efficient. We were able to reach the city center in less than 20 minutes. Some directions on where to find the stops would have been helpful. However, we found them quickly.

Travel between Barcelona Airport Terminals 1 and 2 and Plaça Catalunya in about 35 minutes on a dedicated airport shuttle.

Buses run 24/7 with departures every 5 to 20 minutes, so you can match your transfer easily to early departures or late arrivals.

Ride in air-conditioned coaches with free Wi-Fi, USB charging points, and generous space for suitcases and cabin bags.

Use a single ticket from either airport terminal and benefit from free travel for children under 4, plus easy access for wheelchairs and strollers.

Arrive at Plaça Catalunya with intermediate stops at Plaça Espanya, Gran Via–Borrell, and Plaça Universitat, all well connected to metro, bus, and taxi options.

I use aerobus every visit. It's so convenient and reasonably priced. I refer it to all my friends who intend flying in to el Prat and needing transport to the city centre. I'll be using Aerobus when l leave as well. The trips are so frequent and being a 24/7 service is a huge plus.

Our ride to Barcelona airport was streamlined and efficient. Buses are very well designed and provide adequate luggage storage. Clear signage at bus station for Terminal 1 or 2. Ticket purchase is simple either at the bus station or online Very efficient and cost effective.

The staff was very friendly; they guided us well and made sure everything went smoothly. The bus was extremely fast and well-air-conditioned. I was also very impressed by the bus’s excellent route, which avoided construction zones, and its punctuality.

Your experience

Board the Aerobus directly outside Terminals 1 or 2 at Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport and ride straight toward the city. Services run around the clock, with departures every few minutes, and the journey to Plaça Catalunya usually takes about 35 minutes. Settle into air-conditioned seating, connect to the free Wi-Fi, and charge your devices using the onboard USB points while your luggage rests in dedicated storage areas.

On the way to or from the airport, the bus stops at key city points such as Plaça Espanya, Gran Via–Borrell, and Plaça Universitat before reaching Plaça Catalunya in the heart of Barcelona. From there, you can continue your journey easily by metro, bus, or taxi to your hotel or neighborhood. The flexible validity of your ticket gives you room to adjust plans without worrying about fixed departure times.
