Additional charges apply at the airport (3.10 euros), cruise terminal, main stations and exhibition center, and each piece of luggage in the luggage compartment costs 1 euro.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Taking a cab in Barcelona isn't that expensive!<\/p>\n<p>That's right, <strong>Crossing the city during the day costs around ten euros.
