Airport Information
Frequently Asked Questions
The BLAK team answers the most common questions and covers the essentials for those thinking about flying to and from Barcelona.
Which airport is best for private jet charters to Barcelona?
Barcelona–El Prat Airport (Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport) is the primary gateway for private jet travellers visiting Barcelona. Located approximately 12 kilometres from the city centre, it offers dedicated general aviation facilities, multiple FBO operators and excellent ground transport connections. However, during busy periods aircraft parking and slots can become limited, which is why nearby airports such as Sabadell Airport or Girona–Costa Brava Airport are sometimes used as alternatives.
Can private jets land at Girona when Barcelona is busy?
Yes. Girona–Costa Brava Airport is often used as an alternative airport when parking or slot availability is limited at Barcelona. With a runway of around 2,400 metres and full customs capability, Girona can accommodate many business jets and provides straightforward road access to both Barcelona and the Costa Brava.
Is Reus Airport a good option for private jets visiting southern Catalonia?
Reus Airport is a useful gateway for travellers heading toward Tarragona, Salou and the Costa Daurada coastline. Located roughly 100 kilometres southwest of Barcelona, it offers a quieter operating environment while still supporting a wide range of business aircraft thanks to its runway length of approximately 2,460 metres.
Do private jets need slots to operate at Barcelona El Prat?
Yes. Like many major European airports, Barcelona–El Prat Airport (Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport) operates a coordinated slot system. Private jet arrivals and departures must obtain approved slots in advance, particularly during peak travel periods such as summer tourism season and major international events held in Barcelona.
