Aerobus Barcelona

Yes, the Aerobús operates at night. It operates 24 hours a day all year round, even on public holidays, from both the T1 arrival terminal and the T2 terminal to Barcelona and from the center of Barcelona to the airport.

Please note, however, that the frequency of night transfer buses varies slightly depending on the route.

You will find more details a little further up on this page in the section > Aerobus timetable.

There are other means of transportation at night such as the night bus lines N16 (A2) and N17 (A1) that connect Ronda Universitat- Pl. Catalunya with the airport. More information on our Barcelona Airport pages.

You do not have to print your ticket to take the Aerobus. If you have a smartphone or tablet, simply show the bus driver the PDF of your ticket - PDF sent by email just after your purchase - so that it can be scanned both ways.

The date you give when you purchase your Aerobus ticket is not correlated to your trip since your Aerobus ticket is open. This is only an additional indication to make the bus service more fluid.

• Line A1 leaves and returns to terminal T1
• Line A2 leaves and returns to terminal T2. 

Be careful especially when returning to the airport so as to arrive at the terminal that corresponds well to that of your airline. In the direction Airport to the city centre the route and stops are the same for both lines

The stops of the Aerobus in the direction : Barcelona Centre to Airport are:

• Pl. Catalunya, Sepúlveda-Urgell and Pl. Espanya.

The stops of the Aerobus in the direction: Airport to centre of Barcelona are:

The Aerobus operates every day of the year without exception. The timetables and frequency of travel are also the same all year round.

No, only Aerobus tickets are valid for travelling with the Aerobus. No other tickets sold in Barcelona are valid for this shuttle.

No, the Aerobus ticket does not allow you to take another means of transport once you arrive in town. We advise you to buy a Hola BCN travel card for your subsequent trips to Barcelona, which is also very economical. 

Children under 4 years of age travel free of charge on board the Aerobus provided they are accompanied by an adult.  Beyond 4 years, all passengers pay the same price per trip. There are no discounts for this shuttle.

Yes, you can arrive at terminal T1 and leave via terminal T2, your Aerobus ticket does not take these changes into account. Just make sure you take the right bus, in this case the A2 bus from Catalonia Square. 

Yes, you can take the Aerobus with bulky luggage such as a stroller or a bicycle. Aerobus indicates that anything that can be transported by air can be transported on the bus where space for large objects is provided. 

However, the regulations stipulate that if the bus is full, you will have to wait until the next one to transport your oversized items.

Yes, Aerobus is wheelchair accessible. They have a low floor and an access ramp for people with reduced mobility (PRM).

It is possible to travel in the Aerobús with pets as long as they are carried in boxes or cages so as not to disturb other passengers on the bus.

Only guide dogs for the blind are allowed if they are kept on a leash.

A 100% mobile ticket simply means that your ticket - which you will receive by email just after your purchase - will be - in its electronic form (PDF) - sufficient to enable you to make your visit with your smartphone or tablet. All you have to do is present it at the checkpoint. A simple scan will allow you to make your visit.

You can of course print your ticket if you don't have a smartphone, a tablet or if you simply prefer this option. Upon receipt of the confirmation email, simply print the PDF of the ticket. Then just present your printed ticket at the checkpoint.

A 100% skip the line ticket means that the ticket in question allows you to enter the place you want to visit in Barcelona without queuing, for example at the ticket office. All you have to do is present your ticket directly at the entrance. This way, you won't lose any time on your day of discovery.

On this same page or on the ticket reservation page - the services included with the purchase of your ticket are systematically indicated. See the "Included" or “Inclusions” section for details.

When you are asked to specify the date of your visit, it is because the monument or service you have chosen to visit also requests it. Most of the time, this date allows tourist sites to limit the number of visitors and therefore to make the visits more fluid. Please note that if you are not asked to specify the time of your visit, this means that you can arrive at any time to visit the site - while respecting the visiting hours of the site in question.

Same as before, but here in addition to the date - the monument or service you have chosen to visit - also asks you to specify the time you wish to visit. Once again it is a matter of limiting the number of visitors so that your visit is as pleasant as possible.

On the ticket that you will receive by email after your purchase, it is normally specified how much time - in addition to the scheduled time - you are granted in order not to lose your visit. Please note, for example, that a visit to Parc Güell entitles you to entry 30 minutes after the stated time. The Sagrada Familia ticket indicates a time slot of 15 minutes. It is therefore important to respect this time slot. If the ticket does not specify a time slot, then the timetable must be respected.

We talk about combined tickets in some of our offers when they offer, for example, two places to visit in Barcelona. The ticket itself is not combined. It is two separate tickets that we combine to make a more economical and attractive offer. You will receive these two tickets by email. As they are separate you can use them according to your preference when the tickets are open or according to the dates and times you choose.

When purchasing your ticket, discounts are always indicated when available. For example, there are regular discounts for children in different age groups, ranging from free for very young children to discounts for seniors over 65 years of age. Discounted tickets for students are indicated in the same way. 

Don't forget your proof of discounts - identity card, student card... - to be shown during your visit to Barcelona.

To pay online your tickets to visit Barcelona, are accepted the classic means of payment used worldwide such as:  Visa, Mastercard, Alipay, iDeal, GiroPay or Paypal.

The difference between tours and tickets is that both types of tickets allow you to visit the main monuments of the city with a guide who speaks your language for the tours (or guided tours) or by yourself with the tickets. You can find the guided tours and tickets in our section: Barcelona Tours
