Barcelona Airport Tourist Information Services.

Barcelona Airport has two different types of information service - airport information and tourist information. This page will give details of both types of information service. The tourist information service can be distinguished from the airport information service because they display the logo for Catalan Tourism above them.

Airport Information

Location of the Aena Airport Information Stands

T2B, next to the check in area.
Between M2 - M3

Unfortunately, there are no direct telephone numbers for Airport Information (called Aena). You can call an information line that deals with all of the airports in Spain: +34 90 240 4704.

This page provides details of what is available from the two tourist information services at Barcelona Airport T1 and T2 plus where to find them, contact details and opening hours.

On arrival at the airport it is worth heading straight to the tourist information desks for help on how to get your destination or ideas on what to do when you arrive. They offer information regarding the whole of Catalunya, rather than simply Barcelona. Each desk accommodates at least three multi-lingual staff, ensuring that queues for information never get excessively long.

Barcelona Airport Tourist Information is a worthwhile service to use during your visit. Smaller and more personal than some of the tourist information centres in Barcelona, they can still offer the same information and advice. They will also do everything that they can to help you to plan your trip from the airport to your final destination in Catalunya. If you haven't managed to visit them whilst at the airport, call their direct number and they will answer any of your queries.
