Hello Milind,

These are the points of sale for transport cards. Please note that the T-casual card is not sold at the airport metro stations (the T-10 is no longer available, the T-casual is similar). They are sold at the airport train station, but it is in terminal T2. In T1 there is a Tobacco store (called Estancos), where they are also sold.

GARRAF BUS zone 3 T-10 card (10 trips): €24.40. Only valid for BUS GARRAF coaches => Correct.

Best wishes from Barcelona,

Al precio del billete sencillo 4,50€ se le suma un suplemento de aeropuerto de 3,50€. Así que el precio total desde el aeropuerto es 8€. Debieran informar de esto.

Hello Breda,

As far as we know, there is no direct buses to Reus airport from Sitges. The only possibility will be to take the train to San Vicens de Calders, there take another train to Reus and close to Reus train station you will find the L50 bus which will take you to Reus airport. The whole journey it will take you about 2 hour and a half.
