Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport is an international airport located 15 km southwest of the centre of Barcelona, lying in the municipalities of El Prat de Llobregat, Viladecans, and Sant Boi, in Catalonia, Spain.
It is the second largest and second busiest airport in Spain, and the sixth busiest in Europe. In 2019, Barcelona Airport handled a record 52,686,314 million passengers, up 5.0% from 2018. It is a hub for Level and Vueling, and a focus city for Air Europa, Iberia, EasyJet and Ryanair.
Fuel: Avgas available, the fuel station is located on the opposite side of the GA parking ,so on the arrival if you need to refuel the aircraft, it would be better to communicate your intentions before vacating the runway.
Parking and landing fees: Landing fees are generally speaking low, but the price for the parking is almost the double of the last year, and three times of two years ago!!!
Note: Visit the Aeroclub of Barcelona Sabadell, very friendly people and professional istructors, very good restaurant (low prices). The aerodrome is only 20 km far away from Barcelona (taxi available on the aerodrome and very cheap)
Tips: swimming pool (2), Nice Club house and very good restaurant (low prices also), Friendly people. Overall: one of the best aerodrome I've visited ever
So going on a helicopter through spain you need to stop there. Valencia and Alicante you would want to pass because you need an handeling-agent which normally cost like 250 - 360 euro's extra.
Nearby barcelona so perfect to stop refuel and take a coffee.

Josep Tarradellas Barcelona–El Prat Airport is an international airport located 15 km southwest of the centre of Barcelona, lying in the municipalities of El Prat de Llobregat, Viladecans, and Sant Boi, in Catalonia, Spain.
It is the second largest and second busiest airport in Spain, and the sixth busiest in Europe. In 2019, Barcelona Airport handled a record 52,686,314 million passengers, up 5.0% from 2018. It is a hub for Level and Vueling, and a focus city for Air Europa, Iberia, EasyJet and Ryanair.
The Barcelona–Madrid air shuttle service, known as "Pont Aeri" or "Puente Aéreo", literally "Air Bridge", was the world's busiest route until 2008, with the highest number of flight operations in 2007. The schedule has been reduced since February 2008, when a Madrid–Barcelona high-speed rail line was opened, covering the distance in 2 hours 30 minutes, and quickly became popular.
