Flight from Barcelona - PCR test necessary for transit?

I need to fly out from Barcelona on Sunday. Does anyone here know or has experience if I need the mandatory 72-hour-before PCR test to cross the border from France? I am just transiting so I hope it is not necessary.

No it's not necessary at present, but you'll probably need it to take the flight.

Thanks Florence. Have you crossed the border yourself or how do you know?
As I am flying to Germany there is no need for a PCR test to go on board. I will have to quarantine in Germany for 5 days and than get the test.

My husband goes over every Monday by car. No problems.

Hi ... reopening this subject...

I wonder if anyone knows the current situation of flying from Barcelona, can we move freely from Perpignan to barcalona to catch a flight?
do we need a PCR from France? or must it be in Spain?
