Cheap flights from Edinburgh to Barcelona

December is the cheapest month on this route in the fare calendar, with dated prices shown for all twelve months. If you need a specific week, search across nearby dates and compare midweek with weekend departures, because the same route can vary a lot by day. For trips in the school holidays, book further ahead than you would for an ordinary weekday in term time, and keep an eye on the return leg as well as the outbound.

The carriers listed are Ryanair, Easyjet, EasyJet Europe, Transavia France, Vueling Airlines, British Airways, Norwegian International, KLM Royal Dutch Airlines, Ryanair UK and Aer Lingus. Connecting options, where they appear, add at least one stop and a plane change, so check total journey time and whether the whole trip is on one ticket. The list spans low-cost and full-service airlines, and they differ in what is included: low-cost fares often charge separately for hold baggage, seat selection and boarding priority, while full-service fares more often bundle a checked bag and refreshments. Direct flights are available too, so filter by stops before you compare prices.

Josep Tarradellas Barcelona - is a large airport, so allow extra time for arrival procedures, baggage reclaim and the transfer into the city. The right way into town depends on your terminal and luggage, so check that before you land rather than assuming one option suits everyone. Keep your booking confirmation and arrival details handy in case your carrier uses a different terminal on the day.

Country facts: Wikidata

• Check whether hold baggage, seat selection and priority boarding are included in the fare you are comparing.
• Check that your ticket names Edinburgh and the Barcelona terminal you expect, because the city name alone does not fix the arrival point.
• Check connection time and whether a connecting itinerary is on one ticket or separate bookings.
• Check passport and entry requirements for Spain before you travel.
• Check the fare for the month you need, not only the cheapest month shown.
• Check return and weekday options before you book, because changing the day can change the price.
