Getting there and around
Airport Barcelona's airport is 12km (7.5mi) southwest of the city centre at El Prat de Llobregat. The city is a big international and domestic destination, with direct flights from North America and many European cities. Rodalies (Cercanías) train line 1 runs between the airport (zone 4) and centre of town (zone 1). Trains run daily every 30 minutes from 06:13 to 23:15. It takes about 17 minutes to reach Estació Sants and 23 minutes to Catalunya station. You can use normal metro tickets for this service. The A1 Aerobús service runs from the airport to Plaça de Catalunya via Plaça d'Espanya. The trip is about 40 minutes. Suburban buses EA and EN leave every 90 minutes for Plaça d'Espanya; they take about 50 minutes. There is generally no shortage of taxis available to/from the centre. It's a half-hour ride.
Public transport The metro is the easiest way to get around most of the city. You may need buses or suburban trains to reach some places.
