Aerobús was the best option to reach my hotel in the Eixample area of Barcelona from Terminal 1 of Josep Tarradellas Barcelona-El Prat Airport. The FAQ section Aerobús app recommends purchasing tickets online in advance of your trip (https://www.barcelona-aerobus-tickets.com/faqs/). However that isn't necessary because there are kiosks to purchase your ticket right next to the queue for boarding the bus. The buses have Wi-Fi. Each seat has a USB power port
