Flights to Barcelona

With its distinct Catalan culture, unique customs and even its own language, Barcelona is a place that does things differently. It’s also one of the few European destinations that can deliver a thrilling city break and seaside escape all in one. Three miles of sandy beaches mean it’s entirely possible to embark on some world-class sightseeing in the morning, then soak up the year-round Mediterranean sunshine in the afternoon.

Barcelona flight FAQs

Your flight time to Barcelona depends on where you’re flying from and which airport you’re landing in. A journey from New York to Barcelona will take around ten hours including a connection in London, while Los Angeles to Barcelona takes around 14 hours with a connection.

You can fly to Barcelona from a number of US cities. Flights with British Airways include a connection at either London Heathrow or London Gatwick.

You can find great deals on flights to Barcelona all year round, but the best time to pick up a bargain is outside of summer. Visit Barcelona in spring between March and May when the mild Mediterranean weather is perfect for sightseeing and experiencing the city’s festivals. Travel in autumn and you’ll still enjoy temperatures around 28°C, making it an ideal time to head to the beach and visit top attractions.

Barcelona’s sweet spot is early summer before the peak month of August. The weather’s warm and the city hosts a range of lively festivals. For a culture fix, visit in late September for La Merce, a vibrant celebration of Catalan traditions with music, parades and fireworks. 

Gaudi’s architectural masterpieces are a must, from the iconic Sagrada Familia to the Casa Battlo. Wandering the Gothic Quarter’s medieval streets lined with bars and restaurants will give you a taste of Catalan nightlife.

The buzzing Mercat de la Boqueria is great for food lovers while art aficionados are spoilt for choice with the Museu Nacional d'Art de Catalunya (MNAC) and Picasso Museum to name but a few.

FC Barcelona’s immortal Camp Nou stadium tour is a great family-friendly experience, as is the eternal buzz of the city’s famous La Rambla. And when you want to sunbathe, head for Barcelona’s fabulous beaches.

Barcelona is a city that is easily walkable, but it also has one of the best public transport systems in Europe. If you want to pack in all the main sights then the Metro is the quickest way to get around and covers the whole city, including the suburbs. If you want to head out of Barcelona on a day trip, or visit the beaches further afield, the Rodalies and FGC train networks are great options. The Rodalies is the fastest way to travel to and from the airport too. 

You can also hire a car with British Airways if you want to get out of Barcelona and see more of what the surrounding area has to offer. You’ll receive great benefits, with all mandatory charges included and 24-hour customer support, plus you’ll collect Avios points on every rental. 

You can book a hand baggage-only ticket or make the most of our generous baggage allowance. If you choose economy standard or one of our British Airways Holidays’ packages, each passenger can check in a bag weighing up to 23kg – in addition to a handbag, laptop case or other small bag. Families travelling in any cabin with younger children can also check in one car seat and one fully collapsible pushchair. Read more about baggage allowances for children.

If you’re flying in our business cabin, you can check in two bags weighing up to 32kg each. Read our baggage guide for full details.

Citizens of the UK and Ireland and EU passport holders do not need a visa to visit Spain. If you hold a passport from a country or territory outside of these areas, you may need to apply for a visa before you travel. You can find out more about visa requirements for all the countries we fly to at the IATA Travel Centre.

Discover outstanding service from the moment you book. Fly with just hand baggage and you can carry two bags in the cabin free of charge. Or, pick a price that includes a 23kg checked baggage allowance and free seat selection 24 hours before you fly. Onboard you’ll find HEPA-filtered air, quality on-board catering and a warm, uniquely British welcome.

Simply relax and let us take care of you, every step of the way.
