Overview of the transfer process at Barcelona El Prat Airport (BCN) in Barcelona, Spain. BCN Airport has two terminals: Terminal 1 and Terminal 2. Terminal 1 serves the vast majority of carriers (including Vueling, Iberia, Lufthansa, British Airways, KLM, Air France) operating out of BCN with Terminal 2 home mostly to low cost carriers like Ryanair. Most long-haul international flights depart from Terminal 1.

I'll add a few more details and clarifications. First of all he mixed a bit the two terminals but it was pretty clear that he landed in T1 and transferred to T2. T2 used to be the only terminal with the main building serving as a single terminal until the 1992 Olympic games when two new extensions were added making the main Building Terminal B the new adjacent one terminal A and a smaller a bit further away as terminal C. After the new and bigger terminal was opened in 2009 the old one became terminal 2, with the same division to T2A, t2B and T2C, although most flights use T2B, easyJet uses t2C and T2A is just for incoming flights outside the Schengen Area On the second floor all sections are connected with the area above T2A is for non Schengen flights with passport control (also a small section in 2TC has passport control). It is smaller than the new one but it's still a big terminal that can handle up to 30m yearly passengers. The train station is near T2, as it was built in 1975 when that was the only terminal. A new line is under construction and should open in 2026 and will replace the existing singe track and old station with a double track underground line with a new underground station at T2 (which is already finished) and a connection to T1, where a station was built when they built the terminal. The tunnels (also finished) run under the apron (AKA tarmac). The Blue Bus seen in the video is the Aerobús special 24/7 shuttle service to the city behind it there is also a regular bus service (bus 46) which is cheaper but slower with more stops. During the night night buses replace the regular buses to you can use the N16 for t2, N17 for T1 and N18 for both (has a more direct rout and less stops). There are also plenty of intercity buses to other cities, apart from Barcelona.

When leaving from T1 to T2, did you have to go through security again? Got a flight out of T2 but my lounges are in T1

It's not so clear. Subtitles said "we're arrived at T1" but the signs clearly say that you're at T2, min 15:20

[@marciamira385]

Necessario passar na imigracao ?

[@sirhoopalot1]

Can't you just walk from T1 to T2?
