Rare Lady Arwen Posted June 30, 2018 #1 Share Posted June 30, 2018 We've booked the Infinity for May 2019 and as we have never flown home from Barcelona, not sure how long it takes to get to the airport. The ONLY non-stop flight from Barcelona to Toronto is at 11:45 am. Will there be plenty of cabs at the port to get us to the airport? We would need to be there by 9:30 - 10:00 am. Thanks for your help! We've flown out of different ports in Europe, but never this early and we're a bit nervous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare flarad Posted June 30, 2018 #2 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Plenty of cabs. We were concerned about making our flight so we did the early walk off on our own, walked right up to a cab and were at the airport with hours to wait. Just make note of which terminal you’ll be flying out of when you arrive so you can tell your taxi driver. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G&G Posted June 30, 2018 #3 Share Posted June 30, 2018 (edited) Walk off early. We waited to get off ship later and then waited an hour in line for a cab Edited June 30, 2018 by G&G Edit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare Lady Arwen Posted June 30, 2018 Author #4 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Thank you for your quick replies! I think we'll have to do the early walk off to be safe. Glad to hear that cabs are plentiful and we won't have to wait a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Husky61 Posted June 30, 2018 #5 Share Posted June 30, 2018 Time from the port to the airport is about 20 to 30 minutes. We booked our own transfer the last time and it cost us 30 Euros. They were there waiting for us.:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cltnccruisers Posted June 30, 2018 #7 Share Posted June 30, 2018 We'll be ending in Barcelona in September, 2019, and are thinking of doing a city excursion ending at the airport. Anyone ever do that? We did something similar on RCL that was Southampton to Windsor to Heathrow and it worked quite well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Click Posted June 30, 2018 #8 Share Posted June 30, 2018 We have used https://airportstaxitransfers.com/ all over Europe including Barcelona. We walked off the ship at 7:15am with another couple from our roll call and were at the airport before 8am. It is a short ride and easy to do. Sharing with another couple saved us a few Euros vs just taking a taxi at the fixed rate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiggertastic Posted July 1, 2018 #11 Share Posted July 1, 2018 We make a 10.20 flight from Barcelona no problem. We do book our transfer in advance to avoid a taxi line. It’s such a quick journey to the airport too. Sent from my iPad using Forums Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rare villauk Posted July 1, 2018 #13 Share Posted July 1, 2018 Why are the Ports of Call threads on the X board never moved to the appropriate place like they are on any other cruise line main board? They used to be, just wondered why they always stay on this one when there is a plethora of information over on those boards :confused:? Maybe it’s just me. Anyway, to the OP, there is a plethora of information over on the Europe ‘Ports of Call’ board :evilsmile: ;). https://boards.cruisecritic.com/forumdisplay.php?f=596 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
