Hello Ercan, The FCB tickets are only sent by email in pdf format 2 to 3 days before the match. The reason is simply that before this date the tickets are not yet printed. We hope you enjoy the match!

How to register a foreign vehicle for ZBE
Citat from the information page "Therefore, all foreign vehicles must be registered before they can drive in the low emission zones. Only vehicles registered in Spain are required to wear the sticker. Foreign vehicles do not require a physical sticker to be affixed to the windscreen. The online "validated" status is sufficient to prove that your vehicle is registered and authorized to circulate in the zone" How to register a foreign vehicle is not given anywhere including in the given link to https://www.amb.cat/s/web/mobilitat/mobilitat-sostenible/zbe.html

@10e
Hello 10e, In a day and a half, you can visit 3 monuments, which is already very good, the best option for you would be the Barcelona City Pass or 3 Houses of Gaudí. Both offer great flexibility and convenience for short visits. You can find all the information you need on this page. Enjoy your time in Barcelona!

@WS8 Passenger
Hello WS8 Passenger, If you're coming to collect a delayed bag from Groundforce at Terminal 1 of Barcelona-El Prat Airport, you'll need to go to their baggage service office, also known as the Lost & Found office. Please go to: The Groundforce office for delayed baggage is located in Terminal 1, near the baggage claim area. Once you enter the arrivals hall, follow signs for "Baggage Claim" and "Lost & Found." It’s advisable to check the operating hours in advance, as they may vary depending on the day. If you have any trouble finding the office, airport staff can help direct you to the right location. Safe travels, and I hope you get your bag back soon!

Hello Jackie, It looks like you're asking if the Aerobus in Barcelona can take you to Malgrat de Mar. Unfortunately, the Aerobus service only connects the Barcelona Airport (El Prat) with the city center of Barcelona, making stops at places like Plaça Catalunya and Plaça Espanya. It doesn't go to Malgrat de Mar, which is a town located along the coast, about 60 kilometers northeast of Barcelona. To get to Malgrat de Mar from Barcelona Airport, here are your options: Train: You can take the Renfe Cercanías (R2 Nord line) from the airport to Barcelona-Sants or Barcelona-Passeig de Gràcia, and then transfer to the R1 line, which goes directly to Malgrat de Mar. Bus: There are some intercity buses that can take you there, though they might not be direct from the airport. Taxi or Private Transfer: This is the most convenient option but also the most expensive. You can arrange a taxi or a private transfer service from the airport directly to Malgrat de Mar. For train times and more detailed travel info, the Renfe website is very helpful, or you could use Google Maps to plan your journey. Enjoy your trip!

    2. salou - serena (16 May 2011 - 10:30)

      sono stata a salou l'anno scorso e mi sono gtraovata devvero bene. belle le spiaggie, specialmente quella di cap salou e della pineda, meno bello il mare di salou centro ma spiaggia molto affollata, piena di giovani e di pr che propongono la serata nei locali della città... mare bello e rilassante e bella la vita notturna, ci sono moltissimi locali e piccole discoteche nelle quali non si paga l'ingresso e non si ha l'obbligo di consumazione... noi eravamo soliti fare tappa in 3 o 4 locali a sera ed era davvero divertente! per quanto riguarda il cibo, consiglio la fantastica paella e il memorabile e squisitissmo pollo accompagnato alla sangria. in generale tutta la carne spagnola è molto buona. salou è davvero molto carina e se non gradite molto la vita da discotecari potete rilassarvi con una tranquilla passeggiata sul lungomare dove ci sono delle slendide fontane colorate. per qunato riguarda il costo della vita, consiglio di spostarsi in taxi la sera e in bus durante il giorno perchè la notte i bus hanno tariffe molto alte e con il taxi si risparmia... mentre noleggiare uno scooter non è economicissimo...mangiare in pub e ristoranti costa come in italia, anzi come in sud italia... quidni con 10/15 euro vi saziate per bene... in generale consibglio questa località perchè il mare è bello e rilassante e la notte ci si può davvero divertire nelle numerose discoteche...a me è piaciuto moltissimo e sicuramente ci tornerò! ;)

      Salou pertenece a la costa Dorada y no a la costa Brava como aparece en el primer comentario.

      Por favor, corregir este error.

      Gracias

    5. Salou town - Mark Root, Colchester, Essex UK (8 Mar 2006 - 20:55)

      Salou is without doubt one of my favourite resorts. Catalonia in itself is fantastic with amazing places and people but for the sheer fun of it Salou wins hands down. The shopping is great, the beaches are incredible, the restaurants are fabulous - especially the Quim Font on the front. I bring my family to Salou annually and we continually enjoy ourselves.
