The city of Brussels is served by two airports: South Charleroi (CRL) and Brussels Airport (BRU). Brussels Airport is located northeast of Brussels and transports a large number of passengers every year. The international airport uses only one terminal building with different levels separating the various facilities. The railway station is positioned at Level 1, the buses and taxis standpoints at Level 0, while arrivals and departures are situated at Level 2 and Level 3 respectively. South Charleroi Airport has two terminals: 1 and 2. There are over four daily direct flights from Brussels to Barcelona and some connecting flights via Frankfurt, Amsterdam, Zurich and Geneva.
With a train station located at Brussels Airport, it is easy to access it by train from major stations in the city such as Nord, Central and Midi. Another train also runs from Bruxelles-Schuman, Bruxelles-Luxembourg and Etterbreek stations directly to the airport. You can also take the Airport Line Bus No. 12 from the city.
If you're flying from South Charleroi Airport, you can board the Brussels City Shuttle from the city centre to the airport. Alternatively, you catch a train from any Belgain Station to Charleroi-South Station, and take a bus directly to South Charleroi Airport from there.
Barcelona is a big city but compact enough to allow you to discover it on foot. Therefore, shunning the tourist bus might be a great idea to discover the best sites in the city. You can explore some of the most beautiful parks in the world: Parc de la Ciutadella and Parc de Joan Miro.
Some of the finest architecture by Antoni Gaudi can be discovered across the city with Sagrada Familia being one of the most impressive. If you are a music buff, enjoy live concerts at the Razzmatazz and Apolo. Don't forget to experiment with the gastronomy in the city, pintxos, tapas, and vermouths are some of the special delicacies.
Barcelona El-Prat Airport is only 14km from the city centre and can be reached by the Metro Line known as the L9 Sud; it runs directly from the airport to the South Entrance at Fira Gran. The Aerobus is the fastest mode of transport to reach Barcelona city with two Lines that stop at the central stations in Plaça de Catalunya, Sepulveda-urgell and Plaça d'Espanya.
Using a taxi is actually the fastest way to leave the airport but it is not necessarily the fastest means to reach your destination due to excess traffic on major roads in the city. The taxi station is located at the exit of the terminals.
the customs line is very very long and slow they dont explain well and people has to go back several times to the end of the line
