Aerobús - comfortable airport shuttle

Aerobús stops at the airport

Bus stops Terminal T1 - Line A1

At Terminal T1, the bus stop is located on the underground level 0. Simply follow the signs. On the way from the arrivals hall to the bus stop, you will pass by the tourist information office, where you can pick up pre-booked Barcelona Cards, for example. The collection point is located next to the entrance to the airport chapel under the escalator leading to the terminal's underground level.

If you are coming from the city center, there is an additional bus stop on level 3 for disembarking. However, you cannot board there in the opposite direction.

Bus stops Terminal T2 - Line A2

At Terminal T2, there are two bus stops served by Line A2. The line starts at Terminal T2B, located towards T2A. The second stop is in front of Terminal T2C. You can reach both stops by going directly to the exit from the arrivals hall. At T2B, you will also pass by the tourist information office.

The route to the city centre and intermediate stops

The route to the city center includes several stops where you can transfer to the metro, FGC, or Renfe (you will need additional tickets, such as the Hola BCN! pass). Both lines stop at Plaça Espanya, Gran Via - Borell, Plaça Universitat, and the final stop at Plaça Catalunya on the way from the airport to the city center. However, you cannot board at Plaça Universitat in the opposite direction.
