Berlin → Barcelona — from €27.99 (Ryanair)

A quick note on Berlin: Ryanair is closing its Berlin base and halving capacity from winter 2026-27, so these fares may not last beyond this season. Right now, BER–BCN is bookable from around €27.99 one-way for late May travel — a smart route to lock in before schedules thin out.
