Barcelona Flights

A location that is bursting at the seams, Barcelona is a city that fills the soul with romance, excitement, and wonder. Constantly busy yet laid-back, rustic yet cosmopolitan, the sheer variety of this destination is sure to keep you just as active and lively as the remarkable locals. Tourists from around the world can be found bathing in the waters of the Barceloneta beach or dancing the night away at the Soul Club, ambling through the Gothic Quarter or taking part in the Festes de Gràcia. Because tourists throng this destination year round, it is important to book ahead to get the best deals on flights to Barcelona.

Best time to travel to Barcelona

Peak Season:

Though many other destinations are packed during peak season, Barcelona is actually pretty quiet. Visitors still fill the streets from July to August, but most of the locals have gone on holiday. If you like to socialise with your fellow tourist, this is a great time to chat over coffee at the Plaça dels Àngels, or take the whole family to the CosmoCaixa science museum.

Shoulder Season:

The climate from September to December, and April to June is usually pleasant and mild. Despite this, tourists are few, which makes it easy to explore the city without having to deal with large crowds. Another perk is that you will be able to mingle with the friendly, vivacious citizens at such events as the Festival de Sonar in June, and the Festes de la Mercè in September.

Off Season:

Flights to Barcelona are at their cheapest from January to March. Although tourists are rare during this period, it is still a great time to go, as the warm, placid weather makes it an excellent time to take a relaxing walk through La Rambla, or see a flamenco show in Sants-Montjuïc.

How to survive the flight to Barcelona?
We’ve rounded up all the info you need to make your journey as enjoyable as possible. Follow our tips and you’ll be breezing through the airport and discovering Barcelona in no time flat.What to pack in your hand luggage:

  • First of all, pack in your passport, travel documents, bank cards and daily medications. Next, you’ll need some extra in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet crammed with your favourite movies are always good options. If you hope to catch more than just forty winks, a quality neck pillow and some noise-cancelling headphones will also be useful. Finally, squeeze in a toothbrush and some deodorant to ensure you hop off the plane looking fresh and ready to go.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

  • Double-check that you don’t have sharp or pointed objects lurking in your hand luggage. Other restricted items include flammable or explosive goods, such as fuel and fireworks, and gels and liquids in containers with a capacity of more than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters).

What to wear on a flight:

  • Your number one priority is to make yourself as comfortable as you can. Layer up in breathable clothing and don’t forget to pack a sweater just in case you get chilly. Opt for well-fitting, flat shoes as your feet may swell a little during the flight. Leave the high heels and heavy hiking boots in your checked luggage.
  • Unfortunately, one risk of long flights is developing deep vein thrombosis (DVT), a blood clotting condition caused by prolonged inactivity. To avoid this, make the most of every opportunity to walk around the cabin and stretch your legs. Compression tights and socks are another easy way to help reduce this risk.

How to get through airport security fast when flying to Barcelona?
Being prepared before you arrive at the airport will help make your trip to Barcelona easy and painless. We’ve rounded up some handy tips and tricks for a swift journey past security:

  • Be sure to keep your ID and travel documents within close reach. They’re the first items you’ll be asked to show at airport security.
  • Time to strip down. Well kind of. Your jacket, belt, keys and other contents of your pockets, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make the whole process faster by removing them before your turn.
  • All your electronic gadgets, including your phone and laptop, must also be separately scanned.
  • Travelling with a new cologne or perfume? No problem. As long as the volume is no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and it’s stored in a clear zip-lock bag, you can keep it with you in your carry-on bag.
  • There’s a good chance you’ll be asked to remove your shoes for scanning, so wearing slip-on shoes is always a clever idea.
  • Airlines will not allow any pocket knives or other sharp items in your hand luggage. If you need to bring these kinds of items, put them in your checked baggage.
