Which airport transfer is right for you?

The R2 Nord train (a standard integrated fare, from €2.90 for a single zone) is the cheapest option if you're arriving at T2 — it drops you at Passeig de Gràcia in about 26 minutes, right in the heart of the Eixample. If you're at T1, a free shuttle bus runs to T2 before you board, adding 15–20 minutes.

The Aerobus (from €7.45, per ATM) operates from both terminals with no transfer, runs every 5–10 minutes at busy times and terminates at Plaça Catalunya — ideal if you're staying in the Gothic Quarter or near Las Ramblas. Buy your ticket online or on the bus (card only on board).

The official taxi is metered (the official tariff adds a €4.60 airport supplement; there is no flat rate to the city centre), and the roughly €39 shown below is only our rough estimate for the Eixample area — good value for 3–4 people sharing. Always use the official white taxi rank inside the terminal; never accept offers from touts.
