Taxi lineup at ship

[Cardinal22]

I will be cruising out of/into Barcelona in July and I understand that there is usually a long line of taxis waiting for passengers at the ship. However, am I better off contracting a car/taxi service to take me to the airport or is the line to get a taxi a non-event.

 

For those who have contracted a car/taxi, do they hold up a sign with your name at the foot of the gangplank or is there a separate waiting area from the line of taxis?

 

Thanks for the input. First cruise and I am trying to cover all bases.

We are using Taxi Barcelona from the pier to the airport. They will be waiting outside of the arrival hall with a sign with my name on it. Their email is: taxibarcelona@hotmail.com. Have a wonderful cruise.
