    I don't know about Reus, but last time I was in Girona there were plenty of buses going to Barcelona centre.

    Girona, and add in time for a coffee and a wander around cos it is a nice spot....

    1 hour xfer, buses meet the planes and go to Barcelona Nord.

    Reus isn't in Barcelona, there is a train that runs I know but I'm sure Ryanair have a bus. Have you tried www.clickair.com

    barcelona girona is about 90 kms from barcelona, barcelona reus is 110 kms, so i wouldn't imagine there's much difference. If you can, try and land at barcelona airport which is only 4 kms out and the main airport.

    The flight going into Girona from Dublin gets in quite late, could be easily midnight before you get to Barcelona. The flights to Reus are at better times imo.

    Thanks for the replies guys. We'll be coming off a cruise ship at 8 am and had booked a great deal with Clickair, €30 each all taxes included on a mid-day flight from the main Barcelona airport to Dublin. Too good to be true we thought. How right we were. The nice people at Clickair have now gone and changed the time of the flight from mid-day to 7 am, at which time we'll be still on the high seas. Trouble is Aer Lingus want €190 each to take us home that day (a Saturday). That's €380 as opposed to the €60 we paid to Clickair for the two of us. That's why I'm looking at returning from either Girona or Reus. Clickair have offered a full refund if we can get a more suitable flight or will change it to the following day and we stay an extra night in Barca. Have to say they were very apologetic about the change but it has left us with a right headache. We booked the flights with them in January and I've had 6 emails from them, each time a new change in flight times. Moral of the story. If anyone is booking with Clickair, Bí Ullamh !
