Q: I would like to travel to and from the airport by Aerobus - Where does it stops?

A: At El Prat, Aerobus Barcelona has stations at Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. In both cases, the bus stations are located exactly outside the terminal. Line A1 starts at Level 0 of T1 (This is the arrivals area; when you will come back from the city, the bus will drop you off at Level 3) (for additional information – Where can I catch Aerobus Barcelona?).

If you arrive at T2, you need to catch Line A2. This line stops three times at the airport at T2A, T2B and T2C (Level 0).

Inside the city, the two bus lines stop at the same stations (for additional information – Aerobus Barcelona – Difference between A1 and A2); there are three stations on the route to the airport: Pl. Catalunya, Sepúlveda-Urgell and Pl. Espanya, and four on its way back to Barcelona: Pl. Espanya, Gran Via-Urgell, Pl. Universitat and Pl. Catalunya.

The bus station at Plaça de Catalunya is situated in front of the famous mall, El Corte Inglés. Once you arrive there, it is important to be aware that this square has many bus stations that are open to a great number of bus services. The shopping center and the bus stop will be exactly on your right, if you arrive from La Rambla. If you want to take the A1 line, you need to stay in a queue in front of the station. For A2, passengers have to wait behind the other queue.

At Plaça d’Espanya, you can catch the bus in front of Creu Coberta. It is the second station from Avinguda del Paral-lel.

Be aware that, unlike public buses, Aerobus does not operate in the small towns around Barcelona (for additional information – Route of Aerobus Barcelona and Aerobus or Public Bus).

Tips and Recommendations

• If you would like to get on Aerobus Barcelona at any other stop than Pl. Catalunya on your return journey, it is advisable to arrive there earlier than the bus. During the high season, the vast majority of tourists get on the bus at the first station and it could already be full of people when it arrives at the next stops (for additional information – Summer Vacation in Barcelona).
• If you want to let the bus driver know that you plan to get on the bus, raise one of your arms, but do not wave.
• It is recommended to review the real-time timetable and departure times on Aerobus Barcelona’s website since you will be able to find the bus’ location on the map and stay updated in regards to when the next bus will arrive at a certain station.
