GETTING THERE:

Arrival by plane to Barcelona:

At the airport in Barcelona,
Barcelona Airport (also known as El Prat De Llobregat Airport) is the major international airport of Barcelona.
This airport has 2 terminals, located 4km away:
Terminal 1 (T1 is brief)
Terminal 2, which comprises 3 separate buildings called T2A, T2B y T2C.
Outside the airport, There are free buses green, for if want trasladaros of T1-T2 and T2-T1.

The Tourist Information Office at Barcelona airport.
Opening hours to the public are the same in the T1 and T2, of 09:00a21:00H, open every day of the year and email: [email]ot.aeroportbcnta @ gencat.cat [/email] T1: It is located on the ground floor, left, next to the arrivals gate (arrivals). Such: +34 93 378 8175
T2, in the T2b: It is located in front of building, left, by the ARS cafeteria. Such: +34 93 378 8149

El Prat Airport is 7 kms. Port and the means to reach, its:

• Aerobús:
They can take it off the Terminal 1 and Terminal 2 is an express bus service, that links Barcelona airport to city center, Spain to Plaça Catalunya or Plaça. The Airbus accommodates large groups and two large departments reserved for luggage.

Normally, This service runs every 6 a 15 minutes within the preset operating time (Check the official website Aerobús, for exact times)

I was told, all vehicles are adapted for disabled guests and tickets to the T1 and T2 trip cost € 5.65 and € 9.75 round trip roundtrip (the return ticket is valid for 9 days)

•Autobús:
During the day TMB (Number 46): This bus runs throughout the day between 05:00 Morning and 00:15 Night goes from both airport terminals. This bus has more stops than the Airbus and the travel time to the city center is greater. However, the great advantage of using this service is that, unlike Airbus, You can use your T10 ticket for this trip.

De noche NitBus N17: It is the bus from Barcelona airport to the city center and vice versa, from the 21:50 (from T1) until 04:40 Morning (from T1). The single fare is € 2.00. You can also use the T10 ticket on this bus.

• Train RENFE:

There are no direct trains from Barcelona Airport to cruise terminal.

In the terminal C2 T2B get the train to Passeig de Gracia, that part of the Airport stop to downtown and vice versa, has a frequency of about 30/60 minutes.

If you need a higher frequency, try to ask airport workers they usually take the bus departure from PR1 outside the T1, the trip takes about 12 minutes and goes to the train station of El Prat, trains to the city center each 15 minutes.

My personal recommendation: take the train and get off at Sants Estacio, if you buy the ticket T10 haceis change to Metro without paying additional charge. If instead of a ticket you buy a normal ticket T10, you will have to buy another ticket for the change in Sants station. From here follow the directions ARRIVAL BY TRAIN, hopefully you can match your companions date / cruise.

• Taxi:

From Terminal 1, a taxi delay unos 30 – 35 minutes to reach the city center and costs around € 30,00.
From Terminal 2 (T2A, T2B y T2C) the fare is around € 25.00 and the trip takes about 25 – 30 minutes (simpre depending on traffic).
