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.
