Cheap Flights from Beijing to Barcelona — $272

Beijing Capital International (PEK) and Beijing Daxing International (PKX) together serve the city as a major international hub and a newer, large-scale alternative respectively. PEK is the long-established gateway with many full-service carriers and extensive international connections, while PKX typically handles a mix of full-service and growing low-cost or regional services since its 2019 opening. Both are 30–50 km from central Beijing; expect 40–60 minutes by airport express or 45–90 minutes by taxi depending on traffic. Airport express trains and intercity rail shuttle provide predictable journey times (fares vary by service and class), while taxis and ride-hailing can be faster but pricier. PEK can feel busier and more familiar for international transfers; PKX is modern with generous facilities but may require longer ground transit.

Barcelona is served primarily by Barcelona–El Prat (BCN), the city’s international gateway and a major hub for full-service carriers and large low-cost airlines alike; smaller general aviation fields exist but play a minor role. El Prat sits about 12 km southwest of Plaça de Catalunya, with metro and Rodalies trains typically taking 25–35 minutes, airport buses around 30–40 minutes, and taxis roughly 20–30 minutes depending on traffic (fares vary by service and time of day). Trains and metro are usually the cheapest option, while taxis and private transfers can be faster and more convenient. Pros: wide route choice and solid public transport links; cons: can be busy during peak tourist season and terminals are spread out.
