If the traveller is not in a rush, flying SFO-Paris and taking the high speed train to Barcelona is an awesome way to see the countryside.

Try using the site routehappy.com for comparisons of the flights between SFO to BCN. They average the reviews and compare some of the amenities (or lack thereof) between airlines. Enter the date you want to go and they run a list. (Then go directly to the airline site to check out prices).
