In Barcelona, Rodalies R2 services near El Prat de Llobregat were halted on Friday after a brush fire close to the tracks affected the line to Barcelona-El Prat Airport.
For anyone heading to the airport, or connecting through El Prat, the main advice is simple, check official Rodalies updates before you leave and allow extra time for the trip.
According to Rodalies, passengers should use the official service channels for live information on the R2 and any changes to trains serving Barcelona-El Prat Airport. If you need to switch to metro or bus in Barcelona, check TMB before setting out.
The disruption matters most for airport passengers, commuters in El Prat de Llobregat, and anyone making a tight connection in the Barcelona area. If you are travelling with luggage or have a fixed check-in time, plan for a slower journey and confirm your route again before leaving home.
Authorities have not said when services will resume. Until then, follow the latest Rodalies notices, avoid relying only on station boards, and keep an eye on any onward travel you may need from Barcelona or El Prat.
