Barcelona airport is at 12 Km from the city. More information about Barcelona’s airport: www.aena.es. You can arrive with different transport methods from the airport to BSC:

  • By taxi: In T1, you will find a taxi stand in the arrivals zone (P0) and in the Barcelona-Madrid air corridor; in T2, opposite terminals T2A, T2B and T2C. If they are available, they will show a green light with the text LIBRE or LLIURE (it means “available”). You can check fees at www.taxibarcelona.cat.
  • By car: If you rent a car from the airport (T1), please leave “El Prat del Llobregat” and take C-32B. Continue along this route and head towards Ronda de Dalt / Lleida / Girona. Close to Barcelona, take route C-32 passing close to Cornellà del Llobregat and L’Hospitalet. Take B-20 and take Exit 10 called “Carretera d'Esplugues”. Take the street called “carrer del Gran Capità” and turn left towards Jordi Girona street.
