To the get to Barcelona airport, when choosing a public transport to go to the city center, apart from the taxi, you mainly have the options of commuter train and the Aerobus airport bus.

But since the new one was inaugurated T1 termite at the Barcelona airport, if you arrive at it, for example, on flights from Iberia or Vueling, the Aerobus Aerobus As an interesting option.

However, if you reach the terminal T1 you should consider the Airbus as the main option for go to the center of Barcelona.
If you would like to go by train, you must first take the internal airport bus that will take you to the terminal T2.
This bus has a frequency of between 10 and 15 minutes, and it takes about 7 minutes to reach the aforementioned terminal T2.
In addition, it will leave you at the entrance of the overpass that joins the said terminal with the station, which will take you about 5-7 minutes.
Therefore, this is an inconvenience that can make you miss a train ... and force you to wait half an hour to catch the next one.

This line has even greater frequency than the A2, it happens every 5 minutes during most of the day, and every 10 minutes in the rest.

In short, you choose the transport that best suits you.
