It was very easy to find the correct train. All went seamlessly. We got premiumseats and it was amazing. I got the fruit meal for breakfast and the bowl of fruit was huge. The "flight" attendants were so nice and attentive. There was plenty of room for luggage. This was a trip from Madrid to Barcelona. It was great!

Perfect organization: as soon as we stepped out of the airport, the bus service to the center was readily available. With tickets purchased online, you can take both the T1 and T2 lines and arrive comfortably in the city center. Well done!

Easy to find out the doors of arrivals and the ride into Placa Catalunya was smooth and hassle free. Buying the tickets online with the Headout app is easy and definitely the way to go for transportation into Barcelona.

It was excellent. We would definitely use it again. When we left the airport one bus was leaving but another came immediately. What a wonderful way to get into Barcelona for a very reasonable price.

When booking my round trip to the airport, I ended up making two bookings. Unfortunately, the tickets for both trips came with the same outbound date. I only realized it on-site the day before, though. I emailed customer service, and within two minutes I had the correct tickets on my phone. Perfect!

Thank you so much. We were actually in the airport in Mexico City when I decided we should buy the ticket for the bus in Barcelona in order to make our day go a little bit quick quicker and more ordered and it was exactly like I thought it would work and it was a wonderful relief because we landed at midnight.

Very good experience! It's great to take some of the stress away: instead of having to deal with tickets while lugging suitcases around, you sort everything out in advance digitally, from wherever you are. Super intuitive, I would recommend it to anyone.

Perfect, the trip went very smoothly, even though Terminal 1 was hard to find after getting off the plane. The access indicated by the signs was closed, and we had to find another route to get there. I asked someone from the airport.

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.
