Does the cruise line offer transport? Probably for an exorbitant fee. A taxi might be the most cost effective with the family in tow. Otherwise Aerobus leaves from the arrival terminal to Plaza de Catalunya 3/hr, 30min., 3.6 euros. Or a RENFE train from the airport station 2/hr, 20min 2.5 euros to Sants station and Plaza de Catalunya. All info from RS guidebook. But I'm sure the port is not at the top of Las Ramblas and you would need further transport.

We are going to be arriving in Barcelona and using the Aerobus.
