    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?

    • Melani   Author

      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.
