TRAVEL
Barcelona public transportation system will take you pretty much anywhere you need, day and night. The Metro, Bus, and Tram networks (see the TMB website) will allow you to travel within the city, and the Ferrocarrils de la Generalitat de Catalunya (FGC) and RENFE Rodalies/Cercanías trains will take you to further areas around Barcelona. Google Maps has integrated most public transportation services in Barcelona, and even their schedules are accurate, so we recommend you use it to plan your journeys, rather than using each service’s separate travel-planning system!

Aerobus
Aerobus is the fastest way to reach Barcelona city Centre with public transport. There are two lines that connect T1 and T2 with Plaça Catalunya.
Subway / metro
The subway or "metro" connects both terminals of the Airport with Barcelona underground network since February 2016. The line is called L9 Sud. There are stops at T1 (inside the building) and T2 (outside the building, next to train station), in both cases follow the signs.
