Aerobús A1 and A2orSagalés coach 602 to Girona Airport?

These do not go to the same place, so price is not the comparison.

For a connection between El Prat and Girona; for central Barcelona take the train, the Aerobús or the metro.

The Aerobús A1 and A2 is quicker: 35 min against 2 h. The Sagalés coach 602 to Girona Airport varies between 110 and 120 minutes.

Aerobús A1 and A2: Runs all night. Sagalés coach 602 to Girona Airport: 10:00–16:45.

A1 and A2 are not interchangeable. The A1 serves Terminal 1 and the A2 Terminal 2; both end at Plaça de Catalunya. Check which terminal you are at before boarding to go back.

It runs 24 hours a day, every day. From T1: every 5 minutes 07:15–22:30, every 10 minutes early morning and late evening, every 20 minutes 01:05–05:35. From T2: every 10 minutes by day, every 20 between 23:00 and 05:35.

Nothing from the integrated fare system works on it: not a T-casual, not a T-dia, not a T-usual. Pay the operator, online, at the stop machines by card, or in cash on board with change given only up to EUR 20.

For one person it is the cheapest fully priced way to the center; from two people, one T-familiar on the train costs less than two Aerobús singles.

The operator's "35 minutes from start to finish" is its own figure for the whole route by road; Gran Via traffic can stretch it.

Only two coaches a day at weekends, three on weekdays, the last at 16:45: there is nothing direct to Girona in the evening or at night.

It stops at Terminal 1 first and at Terminal 2 C about ten minutes later; from Terminal 2 C the ride is 110 minutes.

This is the through coach to Girona and Figueres, not a shuttle: it calls in Barcelona on the way.

Since April 2025 the operator has run line 602 on a provisional timetable for works at Sagrera, with no end date published. Check the departure with Sagalés before you travel.

Buying online does not reserve a seat: the operator's own conditions let you board any coach. On board it is cash only and nothing bigger than a EUR 20 note.
