Travel to Barcelona cheaply with cheap flight tickets to Barcelona

Barcelona is a place known for its wide range of unique activities and locales. Barcelona has something interesting to offer to different types of travelers namely holiday goers, honeymooners and adventurers.

After deciding on Barcelona travel, I and my family started searching online for cheap flights to Barcelona and cheap tickets to Barcelona. I was surprised at the immense options available for cheap Barcelona travel.

Once I embarked at the Barcelona airport using the cheapest airline, I made my way to the Museum of Contemporary Art which can give me an insight into the Brazilian Art or way of life. Barcelona is a place that is known for its international schools and reputable institutions for higher education. Business schools in Barcelona are many such as ESEI University, Barcelona Business School and others. The educational system in Barcelona is one of the best in Europe. Since 1990 Spain has introduced a new system of education known as the Fundamental law of education (LOE). As per this system education in Spain is free and compulsory for all. This education system is categorized as follows:
  • Pre-school (3-6 years)
  • Primary schooling (6-12 years)
  • Secondary schooling (12-16 years)
  • Higher education (16 onwards)
In Spain both the private and public schools have to follow the aforesaid system of schooling. In Barcelona a vast majority of the private schools are more expensive than the ones run by the state.

Barcelona is home to a number of top class universities and business schools offering university courses and master degrees in various streams of study. In fact the universities of Barcelona feature among the best university rankings. The following are the most important universities in Barcelona:
  • IESE Business School
  • University of Barcelona
  • ESADE
  • Autonomous University of Barcelona
The Masters courses are mostly available in English.  International qualifications, such as Management Development, Business Studies and Marketing are extremely popular, and can be taken at the ESEI and ESADE schools. The specialized institutions such as the IED European Design Institute offer Masters, undergraduate courses apart from courses in English.

Apart from the offering the best education, the city of Barcelona is also popular for its thriving art and cultural scene. By booking my cheap flights to Barcelona in advance, I got a chance to attend the Barcelona Poetry Festival which witnessed the participation of poets from all over the country. This event features poetry workshops, verse and readings. The Palau de la Musica Catalana Concert Series held during October every year is another popular event in Barcelona. Several leading artists from all over the world perform at this annual event every year.

The other attractions here include the amazing sculptures, stunning beaches, architectural buildings symbolizing ancient Gaudi architecture and lush parklands. Shopping lovers can also have a wonderful time shopping in the Old City to their heart’s content.

I made use of Fare Buzz to know more about cheap airfares and cheap flights to Barcelona. Plan your Barcelona travel in advance and get ready to enjoy some unforgettable memories.
