Know the exact terminal before choosing transport
Barcelona’s cruise port uses multiple terminals. Confirming the ship terminal avoids building the transfer around the wrong drop-off point.

Barcelona airport to the cruise port: plan the transfer around the terminal and the clock.
Barcelona-El Prat Airport and the cruise terminals are close enough to make same-day transfers possible, but luggage, traffic, terminal location and check-in timing still determine whether the plan is comfortable.
Luggage changes the practical choice
Public transport can reduce cost, while taxi or private transfer can reduce transfers and walking with bags. The best option depends on group size and mobility.
Same-day arrival needs extra margin
Flight delays and traffic can turn a theoretically short transfer into unnecessary embarkation stress. Build a larger margin when arriving on sailing day.
