Barcelona is after Madrid the 2nd biggest city in Spain and is located at the Mediterranean Sea. The City is getting more and more well-known and popular, around 27 million people are visiting the city every year. As you probably can imagine, most of them come with an airplane. Which means long waiting lines for the Check-in, the security and the crowded baggage carousels. Stop! Forget about this, charter your private jet to Barcelona and fly at the times that suit you without standing in a line or waiting for your luggage.
I will explain you how you can easily charter your private jet to Barcelona and in addition what you can do in the city, in Fly Aeolus Blog Private jet Barcelona:

Why should you charter a private jet to Barcelona?

The most important thing is, not to stress at the airport and start the holiday relaxed! The best way for this is not have to worry about other annoying passengers, long waiting lines or flight delays at the airport. With a private jet you don’t have those circumstances, you will check-in at a seperate terminal or gate with almost no one else. The pilot will welcome you and accompany you to the plane. Onced arrived at the airplane, the luggage is stowed away within seconds, you climb up and off you go on the runway over the clouds down to your destination.

Next, in order to have a good start of your holidays, is to land as close as possible to the final destination. So, you can avoid traffic jams, unnecessary waiting times and aswell extra costs. With a private jet you have the possibility to approach small airports, which are mostly located closer to the cities than the big main airports.

Last but not least, if you go on holidays you should feel special and forget about your routine at home. It’s a break from your daily life, where you do and see things you will never forget. The experience to fly in a private jet is unforgetable! You sit next to the pilot and can observe what he is doing during the flight and you have a nicer view out of the private jet in comparison to a normal plane that is used by an airline.

Park Güell and Casa Batllo

The park was designed by Antoni Gaudí between 1900 and 1914 and is a symbol of the city. Back in the days, they had really strict conditions how to build and design this park, but they did such a good job, that Eusebi Güell wanted to copy the style for his park in Great Brittan.

So Eusebi Güell lent his name to the park. Because of all the visitors, the government decided to demand admission to the park. Therefor you should buy your tickets in advance.
