Barcelona

ConetPass, the digital travel pass managed by Conet, is also available in Barcelona, providing unlimited access to the city’s integrated public transport network through a fully digital solution.

The pass includes unlimited travel on all major urban public transport services:

• Metro
• Buses
• Trams
• FGC urban railway (Zone 1)
• Rodalies commuter trains (Zone 1)

Available for 48, 72, 96, or 120 consecutive hours from the first validation.

ConetPass Barcelona covers the integrated Zone 1 public transport network only. The following are not included:

• Montjuïc Cable Car
• Aerobús airport shuttle — unless you buy it as a separate combo or add-on
• Transport services outside the included Zone 1 network — these require the appropriate extra ticket
• Long-distance, high-speed, and other non-integrated rail services not covered by the standard Barcelona travel card
• Private taxi and ride-hailing services

Please note the Aerobús is not included by default and is sold separately on eligible combo fares. If a service is not listed under “What’s Included” in your booking confirmation, you should assume it is not covered by the pass.

No. The Aerobús airport shuttle is not included by default in the standard ConetPass Barcelona travel pass. However, airport metro access is included in the regular multi-day public transport card, and the Aerobús is available as an optional combo add-on.

• ConetPass Barcelona + Aerobús (2-day combo): includes a one-way transfer between Barcelona Airport and the city centre. Journey time: approximately 30–35 minutes. Frequency: generally every 5–10 minutes, depending on the line and time of day.
• ConetPass Barcelona + Aerobús (3-day combo): includes a one-way transfer between Barcelona Airport and the city centre. Journey time: approximately 30–35 minutes. Frequency: generally every 5–10 minutes, depending on the line and time of day.

Check your booking confirmation to see whether your package includes the standard airport metro connection only or an Aerobús combo add-on.

Your ConnectPass will sent by email after purchase. Please follow the instructions you will receive by email for activation.

Your ConetPass Barcelona becomes valid from the first validation on Barcelona’s public transport network. Before travelling, you must first exchange your voucher at an automatic ticket vending machine in a Barcelona metro station using the voucher code from your confirmation email. Once the card is issued, the validity countdown starts when you use it for the first time, not when you redeem the voucher.

• 2-day ticket: Valid for two consecutive calendar days from the moment of first use. Example: If first used on Monday at 5:00 PM, it remains valid until Tuesday at 11:59 PM.
• 3-day ticket: Valid for three consecutive calendar days from the moment of first use. Example: If first used on Monday at 5:00 PM, it remains valid until Wednesday at 11:59 PM.
• 5-day ticket: Valid for five consecutive calendar days from the moment of first use. Example: If first used on Monday at 5:00 PM, it remains valid until Friday at 11:59 PM.
• 7-day ticket: Valid for seven consecutive calendar days from the moment of first use. For example, if first used on Monday at 5:00 PM, it remains valid until Sunday at 11:59 PM.

Yes. Your airport shuttle ticket is an open-date ticket and can be used whenever you want, independent of your public transport card’s validity period. The airport shuttle is separate from your main transport pass, so you can use it before, during, or after your card’s active days.

Yes. Your Aerobús Barcelona ticket can be used in either direction: from Barcelona Airport to the city centre or from the city centre to the airport. You choose the direction when you use it. The service operates on line A1 for Terminal 1 and line A2 for Terminal 2.
