Barcelona Information
Girona Airport
Wednesday, 18 November 2009 14:32
Girona-Costa Brava Airport, which is located 103 kms away from Barcelona, is a widely used alternative to El Prat Airport. People are travelling to Costa Brava -especially during summertime to Lloret de Mar, Blanes, Tossa de Mar- usually choose Girona(Gerona in Catalan) Airport and mostly budget airlines take off and land in there. If you are travelling with one of those budget airlines companies, which is quiet common in Europe, the transportation from/to Barcelona is a significantly important issue for this airport since it is a little bit far from Barcelona.You canfind some different ways of getting to Girona Airport from Barcelona and from Barcelona to Girona Airport provided with timetables and prices.
Taxis in Barcelona
Wednesday, 18 November 2009 13:54
Barcelona is swarming with taxis like any busy city. In a central place you will not be waiting more than 5 minutes for an availiable one. Just like in London or New York the standard hand signal will hail you a cab that is on the move, although be aware in Barcelona nearly all the streets are one-way so you want to make sure you are hailing on in the right direction as it can waste you time and money and the taxi driver may be reluctant to pick you up. There are taxi ranks everywhere. As you come out of any big metro station it is rare not to find a queue of them. As you would expect when the green light is showing, they are free and occupied if not.
El Prat Airport

The main airport of Barcelona is El Prat which is far away 13 kms away from the center. El Prat is newly renovated in June 2009 with the aim of making the airport a big center for national and international flights. With brand new 2 terminals, modern shops, cafes and restaurants you can even enjoy while you are waiting for your flight.

First of all it is worthwhile to mention that Barcelona is a relatively safe city. Although the city has experienced a huge boom during the last decade it has remained a calm city, still very friendly to the millions of visitors that come from all over the world.
