Luton to Barcelona is 2 hours 5 minutes each way, and of everything we have priced this week it is the best value by a distance. £76.85 for the whole day and eight hours and twenty minutes on the ground, which is more time in a better city for less money than Prague or Budapest. We cost it the same way as every other extreme day trips on the board.
Tuesday 1 December, out of Luton at 06:00, 8.3 hours in Barcelona, back by 22:20. £39.00 on the flights and £76.85 the whole day. Checked 3 November. See the day
How long is the flight from Luton to Barcelona?
Two hours five minutes each way. One thing to watch on this particular day, you fly out with Wizz Air and home with easyJet, so that is two bookings rather than one and two baggage policies to read.
How much of the day do you actually get?
Eight hours and twenty minutes, which is the most of any city we have costed this week. You are out at 06:00, landed at 09:05, and in the city by 10:00 because the airport bus is quick and immigration at that hour is not bad. You head back at 18:20 and you are at Luton by 22:20, which is a sane hour.
What does a day in Barcelona cost?
£76.85 a head. The flight is £39.00 and the ground is £37.85, which is the TMB bus in and back at £4.00, £10.00 of local transport, £9.60 for lunch and £14.25 for dinner. Barcelona is the dearest of these four cities once you land, and it is still the cheapest day overall because the fare is so low.
Which December dates are cheapest to Barcelona?
The 1st at £39.00, then the 15th at £40.00, the 10th and 16th at £41.00, the 14th at £42.00 and the 17th at £44.00. There is a cluster of sub £45 midweek days through the middle of December, so you have options rather than one magic date.
What is the weather like in Barcelona in December?
Average high of 15°C and a low of 8°C on that date, with rain in 3 of the last 10 years. Jacket weather rather than coat weather, and fine for walking all day.
Is Luton the right airport for Barcelona?
On these numbers, yes, but it is worth checking the others before you book because the fares move independently. We went through that properly in Barcelona day trip from London, which airport. Every date from this airport is on day trips from London Luton, and founders pay £19 a year for the lot.
