Girona Airport FAQs
That will not be a problem since bus lines are in accordance with Ryanair flight. In case you are flying with some other company, you can get yourself a taxi or a transfer to be more safe.
Well, it depends if you wish to visit Girona city centre or Barcelona. If you wish to visit Girona, that will be fine, since the bus takes 15 min to Girona, and the city is not that big. On the other hand, one day in Barcelona is not enough. NOTE: There are no luggage storage facilities at the airport but there are lockers available at Girona train station.
Sure thing. There are several direct lines from Girona Airport to other nearby cities and towns like Blanes, Figueres, Playa de Aro, Roses, etc.
Yes, there is an exchange office and ATMs (Caixabank and Santander) at the ground floor of the airport, working 24/7, but it would be better to exchange the money before the trip and have some euros on you since the rate will be a lot higher on the spot and no currency other than euro is accepted.

We are a company of 4 arriving in Girona airport on a Ryanair flight at 12.59 pm on Sunday (at midnight) on 14th April.
The timetable for the airport bus to Barcelona says there’s a bus leaving Girona airport at 00:30 am. Will the bus wait if there is a flight delay? It is safe to book tickets online?
Dear Zanda,
In case you miss the last flight, you can use your ticket for the next departure, so it should be fine to book tickets online. Half an hour is a plenty of time to catch the bus to Barcelona because Girona Airport is not that big.
