Cheap Flights to Barcelona, Spain

Searching for cheap flights to Barcelona from the USA? Look no further than Globehunters!

Barcelona is Spain’s second city after its capital Madrid, and is the cultural capital of the northern Spanish region of Catalunya. World renowned for its lively vibrancy, mind-blowing architecture, fantastic shopping and stylish eateries, Barcelona’s offerings for your trip of a lifetime are sure to leave you wanting more.

A good place to start is Antoni Gaudí’s phenomenal church of the Sagrada Família towards the north of the city. Then wind your way down the traditional, winding pathways and ageing architecture of the stunning Gothic Quarter, before coming out on the famous central boulevard that is the Ramblas. Always buzzing and busy, the Ramblas is beautifully tree-lined and easy to walk down, with a fantastic array of chic boutiques, al-fresco dining options and rustic hotels on either side.

Whilst you’re here, don’t forget to check out the wide variety of other central old-town neighbourhoods, from La Ribera - home to the celebrated Museu Picasso - to quirky El Raval, where trendy tapas bars hidden on beautiful side alleys are little changed for centuries. From elegant boutiques in gentrified old-town quarters, to bargain lunches in workers’ taverns to craft shops and workshops – there’s something for everyone.

When it’s time to kick back and relax, Barcelona offers a wealth of entertainment when it comes to escaping the crowds. Why not walk from the Port Vell harbour along the marina, through the old fishing and restaurant quarter of Barceloneta, past the leafy Parc de la Ciutadella, and out along the beachside promenade to the bar-and-restaurant zone that is the Port Olímpic. On a clear day, head to Tibidabo, a mountain-top amusement park backed by the Collserola hills, for a stunning aerial view of the whole city. Or if those weary feet just won’t carry you any further, there’s always the soft sand of the city’s main Barceloneta beach with its inviting clear sea and wonderful views.

Whether you’re a couple, family or just travelling by yourself, there’s so much to see and do in beautiful Barcelona. So why not have a look at our full range of flights now, including first class and business class flights too.
