Wikimedia Hackathon 2018/Travel

Airports
The main related airport is Barcelona El Prat (BCN). Some low-cost carriers, notably Ryanair, use the airports of Girona (GRO), nearly 100 km to the north, or Reus (REU), around the same distance to the south, instead. Since Ryanair started operating at BCN, you should check carefully where your flight goes. The three letter IATA code should be part of your booking process and at the very least it will be printed onto your luggage tag. WE highly recommend you to travel via El Prat.

Barcelona International Airport (BCN)
Barcelona International Airport (BCN), also known as El Prat, is a major transport hub, with flights from all over Europe and beyond.

Girona–Costa Brava Airport (GRO)
If your flight lands in Girona-Costa Brava Airport, there is a Bus shuttle connecting with Barcelona. The Barcelona Bus service runs a shuttle bus from Estació del Nord (which is walking distance to the Arc de Triomf metro stop) in Barcelona to Girona Airport, synchronized with various flight times. A one-way ticket costs €16 and a return ticket costs €25. The journey takes approximately one hour and ten minutes. Timetables are available online.
